Troubleshooting

Parasol is unstable or wobbles

Ensure the parasol is secured in a heavy-duty base. Check that the pole is correctly inserted and tightened in the base sleeve. Do not use in strong winds.

Tilt mechanism is stiff or won't lock

Check the mechanism for dirt or debris and clean gently. Ensure all locking components are aligned correctly. Do not force the mechanism.

Canopy fabric is sagging

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have a suitable parasol base (not included) capable of supporting its weight and dimensions. The base should have a pole sleeve that fits the 6.7 x 5cm pole.
  2. Insert the parasol pole into the base and secure it according to the base manufacturer's instructions.
  3. Open the parasol by operating the crank mechanism (if applicable, not detailed in product info) or by lifting the canopy.
  4. Adjust the tilt and rotation as needed.

Compatibility:

  • Requires a parasol base with a pole sleeve diameter that accommodates the 6.7 x 5cm pole. Heavy bases (15kg+) are recommended.
  • Suitable for use with small to medium garden seating sets.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the canopy fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Storage: Close and secure the parasol during windy conditions or when not in use for extended periods. Store in a dry place during winter to prevent damage and prolong its lifespan. Ensure it is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
  • Mechanism: Periodically check the moving parts (tilt and rotation mechanisms) for smooth operation. Clean any dirt or debris that may impede movement.
