GUIDELINES TO CONSIDER WHEN INSTALLING
O P E N I N G A R C
When choosing a location to install your umbrella, it is important
to be aware of the umbrella's arm closing height and opening
arc. Your umbrella may connect with a wall, fence or furniture if
situated too close.
R O TAT I O N S PA C E
Be aware of the clearance space required if you wish to rotate
your umbrella. Nearby walls, trees, fences or a balustrade can
limit this umbrella feature. Positioning your umbrella in a corner
can severely limit your space to rotate.
P R E - C H E C K T H E S PA C E
Where possible, we recommend the umbrella is positioned
upright in the desired installation location, and fully opened
before installing the ground fittings. This is to ensure that the
umbrella will fit, and that the installation location is correct.
We recommend this is done in little or no wind.

GUIDELINES TO CONSIDER WHEN INSTALLING ON A CONCRETE SURFACE
Your WINDMASTER 10 Cantilever Umbrella is delivered fully assembled. Things to consider when installing your
WINDMASTER 10 Cantilever Umbrella using the deck mount plate.
1. Installing on a wooden deck using a Deck Plate.
2. Installing on an existing concrete slab or pavers using a Deck Plate.
Prior to installing your installation mounts please read the important information below.
CORRECT ALIGNMENT OF INSTALLATION OPTIONS: Your WINDMASTER 10 Cantilever Umbrella can rotate
360° and be locked in 16 different locations. This means that every 22.5° of rotation there is provision to lock
the umbrella. In most situations there will be a preferred area over which you will predominantly want shade. To
ensure you can shade your preferred location you must have one of the 22.5° rotation locking holes in line with
this position. Please examine the underside of your Spigot (mounting post) to see these 16 locking holes.
There is a locking hole in line with each of the 4 Spigot (mounting post) bolt holes in the Spigot (mounting post)
plate. There are also three intermediate holes between each of the Spigot (mounting post) bolt holes and these
are marked with an indicator mark on the top of the Spigot (mounting post) plate.
To point your umbrella in the perfect direction or to have a symmetrical installation (especially when installing
square umbrellas) it is very important to make sure you install the Base Plate or In-Ground mount square to the
direction that you predominantly want the umbrella to point.
