WOODLINE’S BASIC GUIDELINES: PENDULUM
*
DO NOT LEAVE THE PENDULUM UNATTENDED WHEN OPEN.
*CANOPY STRUCTURE MUST BE OPENED TO MAXIMUM TENSION TO ENSURE OPTIMUM STABILITY IN ALL WEATHER
CONDITIONS.
*AS WINDS INCREASE, COMPLETELY LOWER THE CANOPY STRUCTURE AND USE THE TIE DOWNS TO SECURE
THE ARMS PRIOR TO COVERING WITH THE PROTECTIVE COVER.
*WHEN CLOSING THE PENDULUM, MAKE SURE THAT THE LOOSE FOLDS OF THE CANVAS CANOPY ARE PULLED
OUTWARDS TO AVOID THEM BEING JAMMED BETWEEN THE LONG ARMS AND STRUTS/SHORT ARMS. ONCE THE
FOLDS HAVE BEEN PULLED OUTWARDS, THEY SHOULD BE FOLDED AROUND THE ARMS BEFORE SECURING WITH
THE TIE DOWNS. IF THE FOLDS ARE JAMMED INSIDE THE STRUCTURE, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE MOVEMENT OF
THE CLOSED STRUCTURE (CAUSED BY WIND) CAN RESULT IN THE COMPONENTS RUBBING AGAINST THE CANVAS.
THIS MAY CAUSE UNNECESSARY DAMAGE TO THE CANVAS.
*ASK FOR ASSISTANCE WHEN CLOSING THE PENDULUM DURING VERY WINDY CONDITIONS.
*DO NOT LEAVE THE CANOPY STRUCTURE CLOSED IF NOT COMPLETELY DRY.
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT NEITHER SHADESCAPES AMERICAS, NOR THE MANUFACTURER
PROTRADE & WOODLINE, WARRANT THE PENDULUM FOR WIND DAMAGE, BECAUSE WIND
RATINGS ARE VERY SUBJECTIVE AND THEREFORE VARY IN INTERPRETATION. ALSO, WIND
GUIDELINES ARE BASED ON SUSTAINED WIND WHICH DOES NOT ACCOUNT FOR WIND
GUSTS. WIND GUSTS CAN BE TWICE THE MEASURED MPH.
WIND GUIDELINES:
THE PENDULUM IS DESIGNED TO HANDLE MODERATE TO MODERATELY STRONG WINDS IN
THE FULLY OPENED POSITION. AS WITH ALL UMBRELLAS, USE COMMON SENSE AND LOWER THE UMBRELLA
CANOPY AS WINDS INCREASE AND KEEP THE CANOPY FOLDED AND STRAPPED WHEN UNATTENDED.
THE CRANK HANDLE CAN NOW BE USED TO OPEN (TURN CLOCKWISE)
AND CLOSE (TURN COUNTER-CLOCKWISE) THE UMBRELLA STRUCTURE.
THE UMBRELLA CAN BE ROTATED TO MAXIMIZE THE SHADE AS THE SUN MOVES.
SIMPLY DISENGAGE THE LOCKING PIN, LIFT THE HANDLE FOR ROTATION TO
HORIZONTAL AND ROTATE THE UMBRELLA.
ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE LOCKING PIN LOCATES ITSELF INTO THE LOCKED
AND STATIONARY POSITION AFTER ROTATION.
