AG25 Mounting Options
Mounting Option 1: Onground Plate

option the umbrella can be rotated. Purchase 4 Stainless Steel masonry anchors such as 10mm x 75mm Dynabolts
from your local hardware.
1. Place the Onground Plate in the required location. Use metal spacers if the
surface is not flat and horizontal. Mark the position of the 4 corner holes with
a felt pen. Use a 10mm masonry bit to drill holes to a depth of 80mm. Fasten
the Plate to the slab using the 4 masonry anchors.
2. If necessary, remove the Rotate Bearing (F) from the bottom of the Side-post
and attach to the Onground plate using the four M8 x 20mm bolts and washers

The Umbrella may also be bolted to a wooden deck using the same hardware however it is strongly
recommended a builder reinforce the deck with extra joists under the boards and the pass-through stainless
steel bolts or 100mm M12 galvanized or stainless steel coach bolts go through the joists.

and attach to the Resin Base “Top Hat” using the 4 countersunk screws.
3. Follow the assembly instructions included with the Large Resin Base.
Mounting Option 3: Ballast Block Frame (C included).
Suitable for most surfaces including grass. This should be ballasted with between 110 and 140 kilograms of
weight. Purchase at least 6 Shelta Resinstone Ballast Weights or concrete pavers (45 x 45 x 4cm) from your
outdoor retailer or hardware.
1. Assemble the 2 parts of the Ballast Block Frame (C) at right angles.
2. If necessary, remove the Rotate Bearing (F) from the bottom of the Side
-post and attach to the Ballast Block Frame using four M8x20mm
screws and washers provided.
3. Place the assembled frame in the required location. Note: for safe use
the surface should be flat and horizontal.

with double-stacked blocks on the side opposite the umbrella.
