GUIDELINES TO CONSIDER WHEN INSTALLING
Your NOVA Giant Center Post Umbrella is delivered fully assembled. There are three different
ways to install your NOVA Giant Center Post Umbrella:
Prior to installing your installation mounts please read the important information below.
Make sure you have sufficient space when installing your NOVA Giant Center Post Umbrella.
18’ of space is needed to slide the NOVA onto the hinged spigot. After you slide your NOVA
onto the spigot, it is advised two or more persons tilt the NOVA to its upright position.
There is a locking pin hole at the base of the mast that runs through the spigot. This is to
ensure the NOVA mast does not lift off the spigot. There are 16 x threaded holes in the center
area of the 16” diameter base plate and on the top of the in-ground fitting sleeve plate and
these are called the threaded spigot holes. The umbrella spigot will be attached to the base
fitting using the supplied stainless steel spigot bolts. Before installing your base plate or
in-ground fitting sleeve, draw an imaginary straight line through two sets of threaded spigot
holes. This will be the direction of one of the flat sides of your umbrella. Use these imaginary
lines to square off your base fitting installation. This is of particular relevance when installing
square shape umbrellas and not so important with an octagonal umbrella.
Once you have erected the umbrella if you find it is still not completely squared off to your
area, you can always turn the umbrella 90-degrees on the spigot and re-drill a new spigot hole
through the steel spigot inside the umbrella (a good quality drill bit and high-powered drill will
be required).t.
