Troubleshooting
Parasol is wobbly or unstable.
Ensure the parasol is securely fitted into a heavy and stable base designed for a 38mm pole. Check that the base is on level ground.
Crank mechanism is stiff.
Check for any obstructions around the crank and pole. Lightly lubricate the mechanism if necessary, ensuring no excess lubricant drips onto the fabric.
Fabric appears discolored or faded.
Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading. Consider closing the parasol when not in use or using protective covers.
Water is not repelling effectively.
The water-repellent treatment may diminish over time. Reapply a suitable fabric protector if needed, following product instructions.
