ASTA CANTILEVER UMBRELLA
ASTA WINDRATING by FACET Consulting Engineers

60KPH
It is vital to note this rating only applies to your umbrella in the absolutely horizontal, non-tilted position and
that installation is conducted as specified in this instruction sheet. Tilting the umbrella greatly increases its
wind loading and the likelihood of wind damage, even with relatively low wind speeds.
The rating also assumes a constant wind without variable gusts and updrafts - it is entirely possible that
gusting and rapidly veering winds could cause resonance that damages the frame at less than the rated
wind speed.
It is recommended that your Asta be closed and the protective cover placed on during any extended
period of non use. Protected in this way your Asta Cantilever Umbrella should provide shade and trouble-
free service for many years.
WARRANTIES
Shelta warrants Asta free of factory faults for a period of:

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
This umbrella is not a permanent shade structure and must be lowered when unattended or in windy
conditions. Excessive wind puts stress on the frame, which can cause damage to the umbrella and danger
to people. This umbrella is not recommended for exposed environments such as high balconies or roof
tops. Do not install on sloping or soft ground. Please carefully read the following instructions; if in doubt,
consult a qualified trades-person. Only use recommended Shelta bases or anchoring systems.
