Troubleshooting
The pedestal feels wobbly on my patio
Ensure the surface is completely level. You may need to use small outdoor-rated shims to correct minor dips in paving slabs.
Dark staining appears on the surface after heavy rain
This is often surface grime or mineral deposits. Clean with mild soapy water and a soft-bristle brush, then rinse thoroughly.
Difficulty moving the pedestal
Use a heavy-duty hand truck or dolly to move the unit. Do not attempt to drag it, as this may scratch the surface or crack the base.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the pedestal is straightforward, though due to the 38 kg weight, it is recommended that two people handle the placement to avoid injury. Choose a flat, stable surface, such as a concrete patio, stone pavers, or a packed gravel base to ensure the pedestal remains upright. If placing on soft soil, consider installing a thin concrete foundation pad to prevent uneven settling. To maintain the appearance of the plinth, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust or garden debris. As it is frost-proof, no special seasonal storage covers are required, though you may choose to lightly power-wash the surface if it accumulates mineral staining or environmental grime over several years of exposure.
