This document describes the assembly, operation, and care of a 10x13ft Rectangle Offset Umbrella with Resin Base, identified by SKU # 272-1774 and Model # UMB-952371, manufactured by ATLeisure, LLC and distributed by Menard, Inc. The manual emphasizes the importance of retaining it for future reference and reading it carefully before proceeding with any steps.
The umbrella's primary function is to provide sunshade and serve as a decorative element for outdoor spaces. Its offset design is a key feature, allowing the pole to be positioned out of the way, maximizing the shaded area. This makes it suitable for patios, decks, or other outdoor settings where flexible shade is desired. The umbrella is designed for easy operation, offering multiple positions for its canopy and the ability to rotate 360 degrees around the axis of the main pole.
Assembly of the umbrella involves several steps, beginning with the careful removal of all protective materials. Users are cautioned against using sharp tools to prevent damage to the product and to ensure small parts like bolts and washers are not discarded with packaging. The initial step focuses on constructing the base and pole assembly. This involves attaching the lower and upper cross legs (C & D) on a flat surface. The connected pole (P) is then secured to the upper cross leg (D) using a long bolt (HH) and a washer (KK), tightened with the provided hex wrench (E). Following this, the 360° swivel (G) is attached to the upper side of the connected pole (P) with another long bolt (HH) and washer (KK), also tightened with the hex wrench (E). Finally, the holder pole (F) is placed onto the upper side of the 360° swivel (G) and secured with a short bolt (GG) and washer (KK), tightened using the hex wrench (E). It is crucial to double-check all bolts for tightness after this step to ensure stability.
The second assembly step involves integrating the umbrella frame and canopy with the assembled pole structure. The umbrella frame with canopy (CAN) is inserted onto the holder pole (F). Simultaneously, the holder pole collar is slid onto the holder pole (F). A long bolt (HH) is then passed through a washer (KK) into the holder pole (F) and tightened using the hex wrench (E). The canopy crank handle (Q) is then attached to the glide handle (7), completing the main structural assembly.
The final assembly step focuses on preparing the base for stability. The blow molded base sections (A & B) need to be filled with 75 lbs of sand or water each. The manual specifies that the gross weight of all four base sections combined should be at least 300 lbs to ensure proper stability. After filling, the bases are covered with their respective caps (M). The pole support cap (L) is then placed onto the holder pole (F), and the entire pole assembly is laid on top of the filled blow molded base (B). This ensures the umbrella has a sturdy foundation, crucial for its safe operation.
Operating the umbrella involves a sequence of actions designed for ease of use. To open the umbrella, users first unfasten any storage straps around the canopy. The glide handle (7) is then squeezed, and the grip is used to slide the canopy up or down to achieve the desired angle. Releasing the grip locks the canopy into place. To fully open the canopy, the crank handle (Q) is turned until the canopy reaches proper tension. A warning is provided: if the crank becomes too hard to turn, users should check if the rope has come off the pulley, as continued cranking could break the rope.
A key operational feature is the canopy position adjustment. The umbrella's unique design allows the pole to be moved out of the way and to the side, providing flexible shading. The multiple-position canopy can rotate 360 degrees around the axis of the main pole, enabling users to shade their desired area effectively. If the canopy does not cover the patio area as expected, its position can be adjusted. This involves stepping on the footrest to facilitate a 360-degree rotation of the umbrella pole around its axis, allowing the canopy to be moved over the desired area.
Maintenance of the umbrella canopy is straightforward. It should be cleaned with a soft brush and mild detergent. Important care instructions include: DO NOT machine wash or dry the canopy, and DO NOT iron it. To prevent shrinkage and ensure longevity, the canopy should be air-dried thoroughly and completely open before being stored for extended periods.
Several warnings and cautions are provided to ensure safe and proper use. Users must read the entire instructions and follow all steps, as failure to do so could result in the umbrella tipping over, causing personal injury or property damage. The umbrella is designed for sunshade and decoration and is NOT recommended for use during periods of high wind and rain. It is crucial to take the umbrella down during high or gusting wind and rain, when not in use, and during the off-season. Neglecting this warning can lead to personal injury or property damage. Children should be kept away from the umbrella during assembly to prevent injury. A specific note highlights that placing the umbrella over or near a swimming pool can cause premature fading, especially for darker colors, which is not covered under warranty. To prevent damage to the canopy, the umbrella should NOT be left open directly facing the wind.
