5. OPERATION

5.1 Opening the sunshade

• Remove the fastening belt (1) and pre-spread the shade by loosing
cloth and roof struts outwards.
• Insert the crank handle (2) and turn in a clockwise direction. The
sunshade carries out the extending and opening movements
simultaneously.
• Open completely up to the stop and check whether the sliding catch
(3) has engaged completely in the inner ferrule. If the crank handle
is released or removed, the sunshade automatically remains open.
• If opening or closing are done by an accu-drill, a torque limitation is
obligatory.

• If the wind freshens up,
close the sunshade.
• Unsupervised sunshades
must not be left open.

5.2 Closing the sunshade

• Insert the crank handle (2) and turn in a anticlockwise direction.
• The closing and retracting movements take place simultaneously.
• Wrap the fabric round the sunshade (see also 5.3.2)and secure with
the fastening belt (1).
• Remove the crank to avoid possible fabric damages.
• If wanted, fit the protective cover.

5.3 Notes on the wind

5.3.1 Parasol membrane on acrylic fibre
The membrane, which is made from high-quality, solution-dyed acrylic
fibre, is exceptional due to its outstanding properties such as:
• Ultimate outdoor durability
> doesn't rot due to dampness or fungal attacks
• Ultimate colour fastness
> won't be bleached by UV rays
• Ultimate UV protection for those under the umbrella
> Reduction of UV rays
The "only" disadvantage of relevance is the acrylic fibre, which is
sensitive to abrasions. Both Glatz and our fabric supplier have been
unable to eliminate this weakness
If you handle the umbrella properly in day-to-day use, abrasion damage
can be avoided. The following advice helps.
As Glatz cannot monitor the proper treatment of the umbrella coating, any damage
1
caused by abrasion (rubbing) lies outside the regular warranty!
