5. Carefully slide the glass shade down over the length of the arm until it reaches the
support arm (*)

Carefully manouevre the glass shade over the support arm (*).
The glass thickness may vary by several mm round the opening of the glass shade and
may not be cut perfectly circular. This may result in some difficulty getting the shade to
fit over the support arm (*). Should this occur, it may be necessary to turn the shade as
it comes into contact with the arm so that the longest diameter of the opening aligns
with it. This should allow the glass to slip past.
Due to the variation in thickness across the glass shade, the distribution of weight is
not even on all sides. As a result, the shade may not be level when installed. When the
glass shade is in place over the base, turn it until the glass leans against the support
arm (*) and the distance between the glass edge and the marble base (L and R) are
approximately equal on both sides. This is the best balance position for the shade.
Continue lowering the glass until it is supported by the main arm and can balance
unaided.
