Product Information
Full details
The KEPLIN 3M Cantilever Garden Parasol in Green is designed for homeowners seeking ample and flexible shade for their outdoor spaces like patios and decking. Its primary benefit is the large 3-meter canopy with an offset cantilever design, allowing clear space underneath for furniture, a key win for maximizing usable outdoor areas. A potential caveat is the necessity of filling the base correctly to ensure stability, especially in windy conditions.

FAQs
What is the total weight the base can hold?

What is the diameter of the parasol canopy?

Is the parasol suitable for windy conditions?
While the base provides stability, the parasol is best used in light to moderate breezes. It is recommended to close the parasol during strong winds.
How do I clean the canopy fabric?
Clean the canopy with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth or brush. Rinse and air dry. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Does this parasol come with a cover?
This listing includes the parasol cover (canopy) and the 4pc base set.
What material is the frame made of?
The frame is made of an aluminum-steel alloy with a powder-coated finish for rust resistance.
Can the parasol be tilted?
The cantilever design allows for rotation and positioning of the shade, but it does not typically feature a tilt mechanism.
Troubleshooting
Parasol is unstable or wobbly
Ensure all four base sections are filled adequately with sand and water to reach the maximum weight capacity (100kg). Check that the parasol pole is securely fastened within the base.
Crank handle is difficult to turn
Check for any obstructions around the crank mechanism. Ensure the canopy is fully aligned and not snagged. Light lubrication of the mechanism may help if it feels stiff.
Water is pooling on the canopy
The canopy is water-repellent, not waterproof. For heavy or prolonged rain, it is best to close the parasol. Ensure the canopy is fully extended to allow water to run off effectively.
Parasol does not open or close smoothly
Inspect the canopy ribs and frame for any damage or bends. Ensure there are no objects obstructing the movement of the canopy or the crank mechanism.
