Parts List

Before assembly, please ensure all parts are present and undamaged. The main components include:

• Cantilever Umbrella Canopy (10' x 13' Rectangular)
• Aluminum Pole
• 8 Heavy-Duty Ribs
• Reinforced Cross Base (Note: Weighted base is not included and must be purchased separately)
• Crank Handle Mechanism
• Foot Pedal for Rotation
• Tilt Adjustment Grip

Setup and Assembly

Follow these steps to assemble your Kingdura Cantilever Patio Umbrella. It is recommended to have two people for assembly.

1. Prepare the Base: Place the reinforced cross base on a flat, stable surface where you intend to use the umbrella. Securely attach a weighted base (e.g., sandbags, water-filled base, or patio blocks) to the cross base. A weighted base is crucial for stability and is not included with the umbrella.
2. Attach the Pole: Insert the main aluminum pole into the designated slot on the cross base. Ensure it is firmly seated and secured according to the hardware provided.
3. Mount the Canopy Arm: Attach the cantilever arm, which holds the canopy, to the main pole. Follow the specific instructions in your packaging for securing this connection.
4. Open the Umbrella: Use the crank handle to slowly open the umbrella canopy. Ensure all ribs extend smoothly and the canopy fabric is taut.

Operating Instructions

Your Kingdura Cantilever Patio Umbrella offers versatile shading options.

Opening and Closing the Umbrella

To open the umbrella, turn the crank handle clockwise until the canopy is fully extended. To close, turn the crank handle counter-clockwise until the canopy is completely folded.

360-Degree Rotation

To rotate the umbrella, step on the integrated foot pedal located at the base. While holding the pedal down, gently guide the canopy to your desired position. Release the foot pedal to lock the umbrella in place.

4-Position Tilt Adjustment

To adjust the tilt angle, use the slide-and-lock grip mechanism on the cantilever arm. Press the grip to unlock, adjust the canopy to one of the four available tilt positions, and release the grip to lock it. This allows you to block harsh sunlight at different times of the day.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your Kingdura Cantilever Patio Umbrella.

• Canopy Cleaning: The canopy is made from high-density 236 GSM outdoor-grade polyester fabric, which is water-repellent and fade-resistant. Clean the 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.
• Frame Care: The aluminum pole and ribs are powder-coated for durability. Wipe the frame with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Inspect for any scratches or chips in the coating and touch up if necessary to prevent rust.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods or during off-season, close the umbrella and secure it with a cover (not included). Store in a dry, protected area to prevent damage from extreme weather.
• Hardware: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they are tight. Lubricate moving parts (crank mechanism, tilt mechanism) as needed with a silicone-based lubricant.
