Setup Instructions
Assembly of the HOMSHADE patio umbrella is designed to be straightforward. Please ensure you have all components before beginning. A suitable base (not included) is required for stability. Search for "HOMSHADE H11 BASE" for compatible options.
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out to identify each piece, including the cross-member base, main pole sections, and umbrella canopy.
- Assemble the Base: Connect the cross-member base pieces. Secure them using the provided lag bolts. Ensure all connections are tight and stable.
- Attach Main Pole: Insert the lower section of the main pole into the assembled base. Ensure it clicks securely into place.
- Attach Umbrella Arm: Connect the upper umbrella arm to the main pole. This connection typically involves aligning a spring-activated button with a corresponding hole and sliding the sections together until they lock.
- Secure the Canopy: The umbrella canopy is pre-attached to the arm. Ensure it is correctly oriented and secured to the frame.
- Position the Umbrella: Once assembled, place the umbrella base in your desired outdoor location. It is highly recommended to use a weighted base (e.g., sandbags, water-filled base) to prevent tipping, especially in windy conditions.

Operating Instructions
The HOMSHADE patio umbrella offers easy operation for optimal shade control.
- Opening and Closing:
Locate the crank handle on the main pole. Turn the handle clockwise to open the umbrella canopy fully. Turn counter-clockwise to close the canopy. The smooth crank system ensures effortless operation.
- Adjusting Tilt Angle:
To adjust the tilt of the umbrella canopy, locate the lever with the locking mechanism on the arm. Release the lock, adjust the canopy to your desired angle (up to 45°), and then re-engage the locking mechanism to secure it in place.

- 360° Rotation:
The umbrella features a 360° rotation capability. To rotate the umbrella, gently turn the main pole. This allows you to reposition the shade without moving the entire base or furniture.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will extend the life and appearance of your HOMSHADE patio umbrella.
- Canopy Cleaning: Clean the fabric canopy periodically with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry completely before closing or storing. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Frame Care: Wipe down the steel alloy frame with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. The double powder-coated surface is rust-resistant, but regular cleaning helps maintain its finish.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods or during severe weather, close the umbrella and secure it with the integrated ties. For long-term storage, consider using a protective cover or disassembling and storing it indoors in a dry place.
- Lubrication: Periodically apply a silicone-based lubricant to the crank mechanism and any moving joints to ensure smooth operation.
