1.  Once you have unpacked your ARU-480, remove the lid, locate and retrieve your mounting hardware, wheels (hardware) and 

adjustable feet. Choose which you would like to use and install before weighing down with pavers and/or weights. 

2.  After you have installed the wheels or feet, pavers should be placed in the base corner towards the center first (

FIGURE 1

), under the 

mounting plate. Repeat in each quadrant until the base is full with Twelve (12) appropriately weighted pavers. 

3.  After your base is sufficiently weighed down, place the lid back onto the base (

FIGURE 2

), lock your wheels if installed, and retrieve 

your Spigot (

35

) from the mast of the Aurora

4.  Mount your Spigot (

35

) to the ECU-480 with the included mounting hardware on the outer threaded pattern (

FIGURE 3A

). 

5.  With your Spigot in place and on 480 Mounting Plate, use the supplied hardware that is packed with your umbrella and bolt the Spigot 

onto the plate threading down to only the plate 

FIGURE 3

). Once your Spigot is threaded down, begin to lift the Aurora onto the Spigot 

until you hear an audible “click” indicating your umbrella is secure.

IMPORTANT: Your umbrella mounting hardware, wheels (hardware) and adjustable feet are packed within the base. Remove the lid to 

locate and retrieve your hardware and accessories. Proceed to remove the grub-screws from the mounting plate on the ARU-480.
