Using your new table lamp is a breeze. First, assemble it as per the instructions. You'll need to attach the shade to the base using the spider shade fitter. Then, plug in the 60-inch clear cord to a power source. Use the 3 - way rotary socket switch to adjust the light brightness according to your needs. When using the lamp, make sure not to exceed the maximum wattage of 100 to avoid any safety issues. Since it's partially assembled, take your time during the assembly process to ensure everything is properly set up. For maintenance, gently dust the lamp base and shade regularly to keep it looking its best. The linen shade can be spot - cleaned if needed, but avoid submerging it in water. If you plan to use the lamp in a commercial setting, ensure it's placed in a stable location where it won't be easily knocked over.
