FAQs

Does this parasol come with a base?

No, a parasol base is not included. You will need to purchase one separately that fits the pole diameter.

Can I leave this outside in the rain?

While the fabric is durable, it is best to close the parasol and cover it when not in use to prolong its lifespan and maintain the fabric's integrity.

What is the UV rating of the fabric?

The canopy fabric has a UV30+ rating, offering reliable protection against direct sunlight.

How do I clean the canopy?

Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water. Rinse with fresh water and let it dry completely in the open position.

Is the pole height adjustable?

The pole is designed as a standard height for garden furniture; the primary adjustability comes from the tilt mechanism and the opening/closing crank.

Troubleshooting

Crank handle feels stiff

Check for obstructions in the rope mechanism and ensure the canopy fabric is not snagged on the ribs.

Parasol wobbles in the wind

Ensure the parasol pole is securely tightened into a high-quality, heavy-duty weighted base.

Canopy will not stay in the tilted position

Check that the tilt locking pin is fully engaged and the pole joints are free of debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Assembly: Insert the upper pole into the base pole and secure the locking mechanism.

  3. Opening: Rotate the crank handle clockwise to raise the canopy until it is fully extended.
  4. Tilting: Locate the button or hinge on the upper pole section to engage the tilt feature as needed.
  5. Cleaning: Wipe the fabric canopy down with a damp cloth and mild soapy water if needed. Allow it to air dry completely while open before storing it.
  6. Storage: Always close the parasol and use a protective cover when not in use for extended periods to prevent fabric fading.
