Using this table lamp is a breeze. First, complete the partial assembly by attaching the shade to the base using the spider shade fitter. Plug in the 72-inch black cord to a power source. You can easily control the lighting with the 3-way rotary socket switch. For maintenance, simply use a soft, dry cloth to clean the base and shade. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they may damage the lamp. When not in use, unplug the lamp to save energy and ensure safety. This lamp is suitable for both home and commercial use, but always make sure to place it on a stable surface to prevent it from tipping over.
