FAST & LIGHT MK2 Specication

1a. Open the brolly and depressing the green button fully, slide the central sliding

handle up the centre pole rmly until it clicks. 1b. Please ensure that the green

button has located correctly before releasing the pressure.

It is advisable that the rst time you use the brolly it is pitched at home in

your garden to familiarise yourself with your new purchase.

Take care to nd a suitable location in which to pitch your brolly and take

note of the direction of any strong winds. You should take into consideration

factors such as the contours of the ground and that the ground is suitable to

peg down and use storm poles.

An open-fronted brolly needs careful consideration when erecting during

windy conditions. As such it is best positioned with the wind coming from

behind as this greatly increases stability in very high winds.

3. Standing at the front of the brolly attach two short storm rods (not supplied) on

to the storm caps located at the top of the mini-storm side.

4a. Place a peg at the base of each storm side and adjust the rod to ensure the

storm side is taut. 4b. Secure the storm rod in the tube to keep in place.

5. Now place a peg in each ring at

the rear of the brolly.

2. Unscrew the centre pole by turning

in an anti-clockwise direction and

attach the blanking cap (supplied) in

its place.

Note: This brolly can be erected

without the centre pole but we advise

using the centre pole for ease of

use especially in wind.

Note: We advise pegging the brolly

using all pegging points to hold the

brolly as fast as possible in windy

conditions.

AQUATEXX® Care and maintenance

All Aqua products will provide you with years of service providing they are

well looked aer. We recommend that your brolly is always packed away dry

or is dried as soon as possible aer a session. This prevents mildew from

forming and in turn prevents damage to the materials used.

• We recommend using Grangers cleaning agents to clean your brolly.

• Wash your brolly while erect using warm water.

• Always dry thoroughly in the shade.

• Do not use detergents to clean your brolly.

• Do not use any abrasives or scrubbing agents/cloths.

• Avoid contact with fuel, oil (in baits/cooking) and chemicals as the stains from

these may be impossible to remove and will probably attack the fabric and damage the proong.

WARNING: The fabric used on this brolly is flammable. Using naked flames inside a brolly or

close to the fabric is a re hazard and should be avoided. C0 Carbon Monoxide emmisions are

dangerous and highly toxic. Avoid the use of cooking stoves and fuel burning heaters inside the

brolly without adequate ventilation.

• Avoid pitching under trees as sap may fall onto the outer and is almost impossible to remove.

• Over time the coating on the outside of the fabric will wear and the material will no longer form

droplets on the fabric and run o easily. We recommend that you re–proof the material annually.

The only product we recommend is Fabsil Gold by Grangers. Follow the Fabsil Gold instructions

when you re-proof the brolly.

Condensation

All single skin brollies are subject to condensation which is unavoidable at certain times of the

year. This can however be greatly reduced by using wraps which are available separately. The

use of a groundsheet and avoiding cooking within the connes of our brolly will also reduce the

eects of condensation.

Warranty

All Aqua products are designed and manufactured to exacting standards and are guaranteed for the

end purpose intended. Should the product fail during normal usage as a result of a component, mate-

rial or manufacturing fault, excluding fair wear and tear, then the product will be repaired or replaced

(with the same or a similar model from the current range) at our expense and discretion. All poles and

fabric colour fading due to over exposure to the sun are excluded from fair wear and tear.

This guarantee is only valid when your brolly is used for recreational purposes, not including com-

mercial usage, eg. hiring, use by outdoor centres etc. Repairs to damage caused by accident, use in

inappropriate conditions, and normal wear and tear will be carried out where possible at a reasonable

charge. Please ensure that all products are clean and dry prior to being returned. No consequential

loss may be claimed under this guarantee. This guarantee in no way aects your statutory rights.

Repairs

We oer a comprehensive repair service whereby most repairs can be carried out on site by our team

of trained machinists. In the rst instance please ensure that the brolly comes back to us in a clean, dry

condition. We do not have the facilities to dry brollies here at Aqua and for health and safety reasons

we will not work on a soiled brolly.

Clearly mark on the brolly where the fault is using chalk/low tack tape. Please supply a detailed list

of the faults, contents, contact numbers and return address details. There are forms available on our

website that can be downloaded, printed and lled out to aid this process - to view the forms please

visit www.aquaproducts.co.uk For warranty claims please ensure you send proof of purchase (direct

Aqua customers only). If purchased through one of our premier retailers your brolly must be returned

to them.

Please ensure the brolly is packaged so as not to cause further damage and ensure the package is

insured for the full value of the contents. We cannot be held responsible for damage caused in transit

or for lost parcels.

All repairs, unless under warranty, will be quoted for

before any work takes place and we aim to turn

around repairs within 10 working days, subject to

parts/peak times etc.

No brolly is guaranteed against storm damage.
