FAQs
What is the diameter of the parasol canopy?
The parasol canopy has a diameter of 3 meters, providing ample shade coverage.
Does the parasol come with a base?
No, the parasol typically does not include a base. A separate, heavy-duty cantilever parasol base is required for stability.
How do I clean the canopy?
Clean the canopy with a soft cloth, mild soap, and water. Rinse and allow it to air dry completely before closing or storing.
Is the canopy waterproof?
The canopy is described as water repellent, offering protection from light rain. It is not fully waterproof for heavy or prolonged downpours.
How many ribs does the parasol have?
This Keplin parasol features six strong ribs for enhanced stability and wind resistance.
What material is the frame made of?
The frame is constructed from high-quality aluminum steel with a durable, rust-resistant powder-coated finish.
Can the parasol be tilted?
As a cantilever parasol, its primary adjustment is its position via the arm. Specific tilt functionality beyond its adjustable reach may vary; refer to the product manual for details on its movement capabilities.
Troubleshooting
Parasol is difficult to open or close
Ensure the crank mechanism is clear of debris. Check that the canopy ribs are fully extended and aligned. Lubricate the crank mechanism lightly if necessary, following manufacturer guidelines.
Parasol feels unstable, especially in light wind
Verify that the parasol base is sufficiently heavy and stable. Ensure the parasol pole is securely fastened within the base. Check that all six ribs are properly connected and taut.
Canopy has small leaks or doesn't fully repel water
The canopy is water repellent, not waterproof. For light rain, it should perform well. For heavier or prolonged rain, retract the parasol. Check the canopy for any tears or damage that might affect water repellency.
Frame shows signs of rust
Although powder-coated for rust resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture without drying can cause surface rust. Clean the affected area with a mild abrasive pad and reapply a suitable metal paint if necessary.
