Operating Instructions
Your PURPLE LEAF umbrella features an ergonomic design for easy operation:
- Opening the Umbrella: Turn the crank handle clockwise to extend the canopy until fully open.
- Closing the Umbrella: Turn the crank handle counter-clockwise to retract the canopy until fully closed. Secure with a tie strap if available.
- Tilting the Canopy: Use the tilt mechanism (often a lever or button) to adjust the angle of the canopy for optimal shade throughout the day. The umbrella offers 6-position adjustment for height and angle.
- 360° Rotation: For hands-free rotation, step on the foot pedal located at the base of the pole. This allows the umbrella to rotate a full 360 degrees, providing shade wherever needed. Release the pedal to lock the position.

Maintenance
Proper care will extend the life of your umbrella:
- Cleaning the Canopy: Hand wash the canopy fabric with a mild detergent and warm water. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the material. Line dry to prevent shrinkage and maintain fabric integrity.
- Frame Care: Wipe the aluminum frame with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods or during off-season, close the umbrella and secure it with a tie strap. For best protection, use a compatible umbrella cover (sold separately).
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and moving parts to ensure they are secure and functioning correctly.
