GUIDELINES TO CONSIDER BEFORE INSTALLING
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.
OPENING ARC
Be aware of the clearance space required if you
wish to rotate your umbrella. Nearby walls, trees,
fences or a building can limit this umbrella feature.
Positioning your umbrella in a corner can severely
limit your space to rotate.
ROTATIONAL SPACE
Where possible, we recommend the umbrella is
stood up in the desired installation location, and fully
opened before installing the ground anchors. 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.
CHECK THE SPACE
A good rule of thumb when installing an umbrella with full
360° ROTATION, measure for canopy depth fully and rotate
for clearance.

Your Aurora Cantilever Umbrella is delivered fully assembled. There are four different ways to install your
Aurora Cantilever Umbrella:
1. Installing on a wooden deck using a Deck Plate.
2. Installing on an existing concrete slab or pavers using a Deck Plate.
3. Installing into the ground (i.e. into a lawn, garden or paved patio) using the In-Ground mount.
4. Installing on a free-standing base.
Prior to installing your installation mounts please read the important information below.
Your Aurora 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 have the ability to shade your preferred
location you must have one of the 22.5° rotation locking holes (
Figure A
) in line with this position. Please
have a look at the underside of your Spigot (
35
) to see these 16 locking holes
There is a locking hole in line with each of the 4 Spigot bolt holes in the Spigot plate. There are also three
intermediate holes between each of the Spigot bolt holes and these are marked with an indicator mark on
the top of the Spigot 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.
ALIGNMENT
Your Aurora Cantilever come with the Spigot (
35
) already
inserted in the mast of your umbrella. It is a an integral part to
the installation and mounting of your umbrella.
The Spigot is secured within the mast of the Aurora by the
Spigot Locking Pin (
36
). Pull this button and slide the Spigot
(
35
) out from the mast.
1.
You can mount the spigot to your choice of installation
first, and then secure your Aurora by lifting over and onto the
Spigot (
35
) until you hear an audible “click” from the Spigot
Locking Pin (
36
), indicating your umbrella is now secure.
2.
You can leave the Spigot (
35
) inside of your Aurora and
mount the umbrella and Spigot together as a whole to your
choice of installation.
