Setting up your TREND TT80164 Brass Table Lamp is straightforward. Here’s a simple guide:

1. Safety First: Before you begin, always disconnect the lamp from the power source.
2. Bulb Installation: Carefully insert the correct type of light bulb into the socket. Avoid touching the glass with your bare hands; use a clean cloth or wear gloves if necessary to prevent oil transfer, which can shorten the bulb's life.
3. Harp Attachment: Place the harp (the wire frame that supports the lampshade) onto the lamp body. Ensure it's securely positioned.
4. Shade Placement: Position the lampshade over the harp, making sure it's centered and aligned.
5. Shade Securing: Use the finial (the decorative nut) to fasten the lampshade to the harp, ensuring it's stable and won't wobble.
6. Final Checks: Once the shade is secure, double-check all connections.
