Instructions | How to install Replacement Canopy on a Supported Bar Offset Cantilever Umbrella

Instructions

Notice:

  • All cantilever umbrella models differ slightly. Please refer to your umbrella’s original manual first for model-specific instructions.

  • These instructions cover the canopy replacement only. The cantilever frame does not need to be removed or laid down.

  • A ladder may be required if your height does not allow you to comfortably reach the top components.

Step 1. Remove the Old Canopy Cover (If necessary)

  • Use a screwdriver to unscrew the canopy cover from the support arm.

  • If your model has a finial at the top, unscrew and remove it as well.

  • Remove the canopy from all the rib ends.

  • Carefully slide the canopy fabric off the frame, much like removing a T-shirt.

Step 2. Position the New Canopy

  • Locate the top center hole on the new canopy cover.

  • Align this hole with the opening at the top of your umbrella pole.

Step 3. Secure at the Support Arm

  • Open the Velcro flap on the canopy.

  • Wrap it securely around the support arm.

  • Optional: attach the decorative vent cover if your model includes one.

Step 4. Insert the Ribs into Pockets

  • Slide each umbrella rib into the matching fabric pocket on the canopy.

  • Make sure all ribs are evenly inserted for proper fit.

Step 5. Fasten with Screw

  • Reinsert the screw through the end of the Velcro strap and into the support bar hole.

  • Tighten until secure.

Step 6. Add Extra Security

  • Use the built-in fabric ties to fasten the canopy around the ribs.

  • This helps keep the canopy stable during windy conditions.

Step 7. Final Check

  • Open the umbrella fully and confirm the canopy is stretched evenly.

  • Make sure all screws, Velcro, and ties are secure before use.
