Non- observation of operating instructions can result in personal injuries or damage to
property.
Please note that if these instructions are not observed, the manufacturer cannot assume
any liability or guarantee.
• Always follow the safety regulations.
• Should you not understand any part of these operating instructions, please contact your
MAY dealer.
Wind can damage your parasol. No guarantee possible.
• Always completely open or close the parasol. Never leave it merely half-opened, as it is
then not fully stable.
• Immediately close the parasol whenever wind rises.
• If parasols are erected in an exposed location (e.g. in upcurrents, on sloping ground,
in wind corridors, etc.) the weight of the base must be increased.
Assembly: Preparing the anchor tube
1. Fasten the upper anchor tube to the lower tube with the M16-socket head screw.
A falling parasol can cause serious or even fatal injury.
If, during assembly, the anchor tube slips away, it will be impossible to hold onto the parasol.
It will fall down and possibly cause a serious accident.
• Tighten the M16 socket head screws with torque as following:
Steel anchor tube: 210 Nm ; Stainless steel anchor tube: 160 Nm.
Screws that are not tightened correctly will work loose.
If screws are not tightened firmly enough, there will not be sufficient tensile force to trigger
self-locking. If the screws are tightened too firmly and over-stressed, the screw connection may
slacken.
• Tighten the screw manually using the enclosed hex key and extension. Exert as much force as
possible. With the enclosed tools there is virtually no risk of over-stressing.
• The correct torque for a torque wrench:
Steel anchor tube: 210 Nm ; Stainless steel anchor tube: 160 Nm.
