Assembly & Installation

Follow these steps to assemble and install your work lamp.

  1. Prepare the mounting point: Choose a stable desk edge or surface. Ensure it is clean and dry.
  2. Attach the clamp/base:
    • For clamp version: Loosen the clamp screw, place it over the desk edge (max thickness: 2 in / 5 cm), and tighten firmly.
    • For base version: Place the weighted base on a flat, stable surface.
  3. Connect the arm: Screw the threaded end of the gooseneck arm into the socket on the clamp or base. Hand-tighten securely.
  4. Attach the lamp head: Align the lamp head with the top of the arm and screw it on until snug.
  5. Route the cord: Arrange the power cord safely to avoid tripping hazards. Plug into a standard 120V AC outlet.

CAUTION! Do not overtighten connections. Ensure the lamp is stable before use.

Operation

  1. Turning On/Off: Press the switch on the power cord or base to turn the lamp on. Press again to turn off.
  2. Adjusting Light Direction: Gently bend the gooseneck arm to position the light where needed. Tilt the lamp head to minimize glare.
  3. Optimal Use: Position the lamp so the light falls evenly on your work surface without shining directly into your eyes.

Tip: The LED does not get hot, making it safe for use near papers and other materials.
