![]() Attach the 3rd wing to form the pyramid base. Completely fill the base with sand. Insert the bottom pole through the center hole of the beachBUB ® up to the orange label. Fling the sand out of the Sand Gopher and repeat until you have a hole that is 11 inches deep. Then simply pull the Sand Gopher out and it will remove a plug of sand. Push the Sand Gopher into the sand giving it a quarter turn twist as you go. Use the Sand Gopher Tool by inserting it into the sand through the center hole of the beachBUB ®. If the sand is really dry and powdery, start by brushing away the very top layer of dry sand to make a nice firm flat space for your umbrella base. We’ve made the drawstring and button stop more heavy duty than ever. The umbrella system now also includes reinforcement stitching at 11 different stress points on the oversized carry bag and the shoulder strap width has been increased and extra padding added. (Additional plugs are provided and are located in the pocket of each carry bag.) Likewise, if the canopy tension is too loose, simply add additional plugs in order to create more tension. ![]() If your canopy is too tight and difficult to open, simply remove as many of the plugs as necessary to achieve the desired canopy tension. These spacer plugs can be used to adjust the overall tension of the umbrella canopy. It also allows us to insert a small plastic spacer plug in each rib pocket. This new bracket prevents the rib from wearing on the canopy. We noticed that many other brands of beach umbrellas often struggle with ribs over time poking through the canopy, so we have reinforced the rib pockets on the umbrella canopy and added a T-shaped bracket inside each pocket. One of the major new additions in the most recent model of the beachBUB ® Beach Umbrella System is the ability to adjust the tension of the umbrella canopy. We identified the weak link and made it stronger. Our new three piece specially designed hub system has been tested at over 400 lbs of pulling force. The average pulling force necessary to disengage a rib from a typical beach umbrella hub is about 40 lbs of pulling force. This is caused when the excessive force of the wind pulls the ribs away from the hub system. The chain and hitch pin as well as the collar bolts now feature stainless steel to prevent rusting and corrosion.Ī common problem with typical beach umbrellas is canopy inversion.
