OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
By now you have installed your BASE (in ground or not) with BALLASTS, bolted your MAST to the BASE. The
LOCATOR PIN(4) should be inserted through the MAST(2).
If the MAST is properly seated and the LOCATOR PIN properly inserted, the SHADE art.981 will not rotate or lift. You
are now ready to operate your SHADE art.981.
Your SHADE art.981 has 3 positions: Tilt Position 1, Tilt Position 2, Horizontal Position 3.
A
Closed 1 2
POSITIONS
0 Closed Position
1. Tilt Position 1 blocks extremely angular sun
2. Tilt Position 2 blocks moderately angular sun
3. Horizontal Position
NOTE: Do not use the tilt positions in windy conditions.
TO OPEN THE SHADE CANOPY
The following instructions will walk you through the sequential progression of opening the SHADE art.981 canopy
structure as shown in the diagram. At any time, you may skip a position and open to the desired position.
OPEN TO THE FIRST POSITION
1. Remove the STRAP (A) that holds the SHADE art.981 to the MAST(2) when in the closed position. Take note of
the"parachute" folding method used to fold the canopy when closed.
2. Make sure your SLIDER CAR STOP PIN(5) is pulled out.
3. Turn clockwise the CRANK(3) until the SLIDER CAR STOP PIN(5) autolocates into the lowest predetermined hole.
Continue winding until the canopy is taut. The canopy will now be in TILT POSITION 1.
4. The CRANK(3) locks automatically when you stop winding.

STEP 3.
CAUTION:
NEVER FORCE THE ARMS OPEN IF YOU FEEL RESISTANCE IN THE WINDER! If you feel resistance in the crank,
you should manually pull out a few arms to help facilitate winding. Once the canopy is open, look up into the arms to
confirm all seven (7) SPACER BUTTONS are inserted. Please, replace the seven (7) SPACER BUTTONS already
assembled to the arms with the seven (7) SPACER BUTTONS you can find in the assembly kit. Until you have not
installed all seven (7) SPACER BUTTONS, continue to manually pull out a few arms with each opening to facilitate
winding open the canopy. The SHADE art.981 warranty does not cover repairs resulting from not having all seven
SPACER BUTTONS of the assembly kit inserted.
OPEN TO THE SECOND POSITION
1. Turn CRANK(3) counter-clockwise slightly to release the pressure.
2. Quickly pull out the SLIDER CAR STOP PIN(5) (making sure it stays in the horizontal position), and let it slide up the
SLIDER CAR(6) on its own until the pin autolocates in the next predetermined hole. It will be necessary to turn the
CRANK(3) a few times until the pin autolocates. Once the pin is located in the hole, continue winding until the canopy is
taut. The canopy will now be in TILT POSITION 2.
OPEN TO THE THIRD POSITION
1. Repeat steps 1-2 outlined above.
2. The canopy will now be in HORIZONTAL POSITION.
HELPFUL HINT:
At any time, you may skip a position and open to the desired position by keeping pulled-out the SLIDER CAR STOP PIN .
In this position, the pin will NOT autolocate as it passes over the predetermined holes. If you choose to pass the tilt
position(s) and go directly to the horizontal canopy position, you may keep the pin pulled-out and continue winding, but be
sure to turn the pin back to the horizontal position before the HORIZONTAL CANOPY POSITION is attained. If you pass
the top hole, unwind the winder slightly and then pull the SLIDER CAR STOP PIN down and into the top hole.
CLOSING OF THE UMBRELLA
In every time you can close the SHADE umbrella or come back to the previous position of the umbrella, turning counter-
clockwise the CRANCK, and pushing the SLIDER downward, to make easier the going down of the cantilever of the
umbrella. During the closing process it needs to keep the SLIDER CAR STOP PIN pulled out from the MAST.
