• Umbrella Canopy with Ribs
• Main Pole Sections
• Base Crossbars
• Rotation Mechanism
• Handle and Crank System

Note: A weighted base is essential for stability and is NOT included with the umbrella. Please ensure you have a suitable weighted base (e.g., PURPLE LEAF XN4150) or a method for secure ground mounting.

Setup and Assembly

Assembly typically requires two people. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Prepare the Base: If using a weighted base (sold separately), fill it with sand and/or water as per its instructions to ensure maximum stability.
2. Assemble Base Crossbars: Connect the base crossbars to form a stable foundation.
3. Attach Rotation Mechanism: Secure the rotation mechanism to the center of the assembled crossbars using the provided bolts and hex key.
4. Install Main Pole: Slide the lower section of the main pole onto the rotation mechanism and secure it with bolts. Ensure it is firmly attached.
5. Connect Upper Pole Section: Carefully attach the upper section of the main pole, which includes the umbrella canopy, to the lower pole section. Align the holes and secure with the provided hardware.
6. Extend Umbrella Ribs: Gently extend the four main ribs of the umbrella canopy until they click into place. Ensure the fabric is properly tucked into the end pieces.
7. Secure Protective Covers: Slide any protective covers or caps over the base and pole connections for a finished look and added protection.

Operating Instructions

Your PURPLE LEAF patio umbrella is designed for ease of use and maximum shade control.

1. Opening the Umbrella: Use the crank system located on the main pole to smoothly open the umbrella canopy. Turn the crank clockwise until the canopy is fully extended.
2. Closing the Umbrella: Turn the crank counter-clockwise to retract the canopy. Once fully closed, secure the canopy with the attached strap to prevent it from unfurling in windy conditions.
3. Adjusting Height and Angle: Utilize the unique handle design and crank system to select from 5 different height and angle positions. This allows you to optimize shade coverage throughout the day.
4. 360-Degree Rotation: To rotate the umbrella, locate the foot pedal at the base. Press the pedal to unlock the rotation mechanism, then gently rotate the umbrella to your desired position. Release the pedal to lock it in place.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your patio umbrella.

• Cleaning the Canopy: Clean the polyester fabric canopy regularly with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before closing or storing. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Cleaning the Frame: Wipe down the aluminum pole and ribs with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. The powder-coated finish is designed to resist rust, but regular cleaning helps maintain its integrity.
• Storage: During periods of non-use or severe weather conditions (strong winds, heavy rain, snow), it is recommended to close the umbrella and secure it with the strap. For long-term storage, cover the umbrella with a protective cover or store it indoors in a dry place.
• Wind Advisory: Always close the umbrella in windy conditions to prevent damage to the canopy or frame.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your umbrella, refer to the following common solutions:

• Umbrella is unstable: Ensure the weighted base is adequately filled with sand/water or securely mounted to the ground. Check all bolts and connections for tightness.
• Crank system is stiff: Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts of the crank mechanism. Ensure no fabric is caught in the mechanism.
• Canopy does not open/close smoothly: Check for any obstructions or tangled fabric. Ensure the ribs are properly extended and secured.
• Umbrella does not rotate: Ensure the foot pedal at the base is fully depressed to unlock the rotation mechanism. Check for any debris obstructing the rotation.
