Sun, Sol, Helios - the names are as varied as the dangers posed by our favorite star. Protect yourself from too much direct sunlight with a first-class UV protection shield, commonly known as a parasol. The cover made of high-quality polyester not only reliably protects you from UV radiation but is also rain-resistant for a short time, so even a small shower won't be a problem. Double-stitched umbrella fabric and reinforced metal struts ensure a wind-resistant stand and additional stability, while you always keep a cool head thanks to the integrated air circulation bonnet. Made of powder-coated, rustproof aluminum, the frame highlights the high quality of the materials used and offers all-around protection at its best. The sunshade must be fixed to a solid surface (e.g., concrete) with an area of at least 100x100x40 cm. Please note: The umbrella is delivered partially assembled by a forwarding agent. The final assembly (stand/changeable cover) must be done on site. There is a transport lock in the upper area which can tear during transport; this is not a defect. Please note the following when setting up: For easier assembly, you can tilt the umbrella at the base. This allows the umbrella to be laid down even in heavy weather. The umbrella must unfold easily. Do not use force or violence. There is a risk - as with all umbrellas - that the struts may become wedged. In this case, please reach under the umbrella before opening it and rearrange them correctly. Afterwards, the umbrella can be unfolded easily. Note on measuring the span: this is measured from the outermost end of the strut along to the top center and back again on the other side. That is, the strut is 3.6 m wide.
