SURFACE INSTALLATIONS
Your umbrella comes with a spigot. Once you have installed the Deck Plate
mount according to the instructions below, attach the spigot to the Deck Plate
mount using the supplied Allen key and bolts. This is recommended as a two
person operation.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to have read “GUIDELINES TO CONSIDER WHEN
INSTALLING” (Pages 5-6) before beginning the installation process.
INSTALLING ON A WOOD DECK USING A BASE PLATE:
To install your Axis umbrella onto a wood deck the following instructions should
be followed. Installing your Axis umbrella onto a wood deck you will need the
following:
Deck Plate and deck bolts (purchased by you or supplied by your hired
professional contractor)
A decently amp rated corded or cordless power drill.
A scrap piece of wood (to make a reinforcing “nog”) and suitable
hardware to secure the nog to the deck joists.
IMPORTANT: Your umbrella must be bolted down into a reinforced
“nog” that is fixed under the deck planks to the deck joist. The
umbrella must not only be fixed to the deck planking as this will
likely result in the deck planks “pulling up” and the umbrella falling
over in high winds.
Once you have decided on the location of the Axis/Deck Plate then use the four
outer holes in the deck plate as a template to start drilling each of the holes in
the deck. Make sure each of the four holes go through decking and miss the
joists. Using the four holes drilled in the deck as a guide, you now need to install
a reinforcing “nog”/brace hard up under the decking for the deck plate bolts to
be fixed into. It is recommended that two wood “nogs” or “braces” be secured
between the deck joists or bearers that form the structural frame of the deck.
Ideally the “nog”/brace should be two short lengths of 4”x4” wood posts side
by side, or alternatively two pieces of 2”x8” wood joists joined together for the
umbrella deck plate to bolt through. The “nog”/brace must then be securely
