Assembly Instructions
Follow these steps to assemble your patio umbrella:
- Unpack all components and verify against the included assembly guide.
- Connect the two pole pieces by screwing them together firmly.
- Insert the assembled pole into a suitable umbrella base (sold separately). Ensure the base is stable and heavy enough to support the umbrella.
- Locate the solar panel on top of the umbrella canopy. Ensure it is securely connected. If the lights are not working after initial charging, check the connection inside the pole near the solar panel.
