This document provides assembly instructions and safety warnings for an outdoor cantilever parasol, designed for domestic use. The parasol is identified by SKU 44863-44866+47298-47301 and Batch Nr: 2001735008.

Function Description:

The device is a cantilever parasol, also referred to as a sunshade or umbrella, intended to provide shade outdoors. Its design allows for the canopy to be positioned to offer optimal sun protection. The parasol features a folding mechanism for opening and closing the canopy, and it requires a suitable base for stability. The assembly process involves attaching the main pole to a base, securing the cantilever arm, and then attaching and deploying the canopy. The parasol is designed to be adjustable, allowing users to change the angle and position of the canopy.

Important Technical Specifications:

While specific dimensions and materials are not explicitly detailed in the provided pages, the manual implies a robust construction suitable for outdoor use. The parasol includes several distinct components:

Ax2 (Part 1): Likely refers to the main pole or a significant structural component, with "x2" possibly indicating two such parts or a quantity.
Bx2 (Part 2): Another structural component, possibly related to the base or a connecting element.
Cx8 (Part 3): Small components, possibly fasteners or connectors, given the quantity of eight.
Dx1 (Part 4): A tool, likely a wrench or spanner, included for assembly.
Ex1 (Part 5): The canopy or umbrella fabric, shown in a folded state.
D (Part D in assembly steps): A component that connects the main pole to the base or provides a pivot point.
C (Part C in assembly steps): A component that attaches to the main pole, possibly part of the cantilever arm.
A (Part A in assembly steps): A component that connects the cantilever arm to the canopy.
B (Part B in assembly steps): A component that appears to be part of the base or a stabilizing element. The assembly process involves securing these parts using screws and bolts, as indicated by the visual instructions. The parasol is designed to be stable on firm, level ground, and its operation involves a crank or lever mechanism to extend and retract the canopy.

Usage Features:

The parasol is designed for ease of use with a clear assembly process.

Assembly: The manual provides step-by-step visual instructions (images 1-7) for assembly. It starts with attaching the main pole to the base (steps 1-2), then assembling the cantilever arm and connecting it to the canopy (steps 3-6). The final step (step 7) shows the canopy fully deployed and secured.
Operation: The parasol features a folding mechanism (indicated by "Push" and "Pull" instructions) for opening and closing the canopy. This suggests a user-friendly system for deployment and retraction.
Stability: It is crucial to use the parasol with a suitable base and on firm, level ground to ensure stability.
Weather Conditions: The parasol is not intended for use during strong winds, heavy rain, or snowfall. Users are instructed to close the parasol and put on its cover when wind speeds exceed a "moderate breeze" or during adverse weather conditions.

Maintenance Features:

While detailed maintenance instructions are not provided, the safety warnings imply certain maintenance practices:

Regular Inspection: Users are advised to handle heavy parts with care and ensure the product is fully assembled before use, suggesting a need for regular checks on the integrity of the assembly.
Protection from Elements: The instruction to close the parasol and use a cover during strong winds, rain, or snow indicates that protecting the canopy and mechanism from harsh weather is a key maintenance aspect to prolong the product's lifespan.
Cleaning: Although not explicitly stated, general outdoor furniture maintenance would include periodic cleaning of the canopy and frame to prevent dirt buildup and maintain appearance.
Mechanism Care: Keeping hands away from the folding mechanism and moving parts not only prevents injury but also suggests that these parts should be kept clear of obstructions and potentially lubricated if necessary, though this is not explicitly mentioned.

Safety Warnings:

The manual emphasizes several critical safety warnings across multiple languages:

Children Safety: Keep children away from the assembly area and ensure they do not play with or climb on the parasol, canopy, or base, as the product is not a toy and contains small parts that could pose a choking hazard.
Assembly and Use: Ensure the product is fully assembled on firm, level ground. Do not use or open the parasol without a suitable base.
Injury Prevention: Keep hands away from the folding mechanism and moving parts to prevent injury.
Weather Precautions: Do not use the parasol during high winds, heavy rain, or snowfall. Always close it and use a cover in such conditions. Failure to do so can result in personal injury and/or damage to the product.
Fire Hazard: Do not use open fire (e.g., garden barbecue or grill) beneath or right next to the product.
Intended Use: The product is for domestic use only. No liability will be accepted for damage or injury caused by incorrect use.
