When installing the pins, first smash the directional inner convexity of the upper umbrella pole, install the pins on the round holes of the handle bars on both sides, push the umbrella pole so that it exceeds the inner convex stalk, and then restore the inner convex stalk. Close the umbrella, click the beginning, the umbrella can be opened in sections, automatically and unimpeded. Repeated several times and no longer separated, it was repaired.
② Fold and bend into a T-shaped pin with an iron wire with a diameter of one millimeter. It can also be used instead.
