FAQs

What is the diameter of the parasol when open?

The parasol has a canopy width of 2.4 meters, providing a diameter of shade coverage.

Does it come with a base?

No, this parasol does not include a base. It is designed with an integrated ground spike for soft surfaces and requires a separate, compatible base for hard surfaces.

Is the canopy waterproof?

The 170T Polyester Canopy offers protection in the event of a shower or two, but it is not fully waterproof for prolonged or heavy rain.

How do I adjust the tilt?

There is a mechanism on the pole, usually a button or lever, that allows you to adjust the tilt angle of the canopy.

What are the pole materials?

The parasol is constructed with steel poles, finished in a powder coat for strength and durability.

Can this parasol be used on a balcony?

Yes, but only if you use a suitable, stable parasol base designed for balconies and ensure it is adequately weighted for safety.

How is it transported?

The parasol features a two-piece construction and comes with a handy carry case, making it easy to transport and store.

Troubleshooting

Parasol is unstable in wind

Ensure the ground spike is fully inserted into soft ground, or use a heavy, stable parasol base on hard surfaces. Consider closing the parasol during excessively windy conditions.

Canopy is difficult to open or close

Check that the pole sections are correctly aligned and that no fabric is caught in the mechanism. Lubricate the slider mechanism with a silicone-based spray if it feels stiff.

Parasol does not tilt properly

Verify that the tilt mechanism is not obstructed. Ensure the pole is securely in place and try adjusting the tilt angle slowly.

Minor mold or mildew on canopy

Clean the affected area with a mild solution of water and soap, or a diluted white vinegar solution. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before use or storage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Assemble the two pole sections by inserting one into the other.
  2. If using on soft ground (beach, lawn), firmly push the integrated ground spike into the soil.
  3. If using on a hard surface (patio, deck), ensure the parasol is placed in a suitable heavy base (sold separately) for stability.
  4. Open the canopy by operating the slider mechanism.
  5. Adjust the height and tilt as needed using the respective mechanisms.

Compatibility:

  • The integrated ground spike is compatible with sand, soil, and grass.
  • For use on hard surfaces, a parasol base with a compatible pole diameter is required.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the canopy with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow it to dry completely before closing.
  • Storage: Ensure the parasol is dry before folding and storing it in the provided carry case. Store in a dry location.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the poles and mechanisms for any signs of wear or damage. Tighten any loose parts.
