Kit 40 Installation Guide

This is a step-by-step guide on how to install our Kit 40

  1. Install the components onto the threaded rod as pictured below.

    Ensuring the plastic washer is underneath, touching the ceramic base.

    Please Note: This kit no longer comes with the grommet, as it's no longer required.

  2. Push the above assembly up through the hole in your vase/item so it is sticking out the top of the vase/item.

    Ensure to keep hold of it once sticking out the top as you don't want it to fall down, alternatively, if you can lay the vase/item on its side this may help.

  3. Once the assembly is sticking out the top take the second metal washer and slide it onto the rod followed by the second steel nut.

  4. Before you tighten the assembly up ensure you have the correct length of thread sticking out the top:

    • For the no spacer kit, leave 6mm of thread sticking out the top of the nut.
    • For the 38mm kit, leave 50mm of thread sticking out the top of the lamp base.
    • For the 75mm Kit, leave 87mm of thread sticking out the top of the lamp base.
  5. Once you have the correct amount of thread sticking out the top you can tighten up the nuts, in most cases you can get away with holding the nut from the inside whilst you get a spanner on the nut on top.

  6. After the assembly is nice and tight you can slide the nut cover over the top followed by the tube cover. (If Selected)

  7. The next step is to insert the cable, grab the black grommet supplied and insert this into the 10mm hole drilled into the vase/item.

    Please note that you may not be able to use this part, if not, then ensure the hole is smooth and has no sharps bits.

  8. Take the cable and push it into the 10mm hole and out the bottom of the vase, then take the cord grip and feed the cable through one hole and then back through the other as seen below.

    Ensuring that there is enough cable to come out the top of the assembly and ensuring the cord grip is touching the inside of the 10mm hole, you may need to rerun this process to extend or shorten the position of the cord grip.

  9. Once this has been done, you can now take the cable and push up through the assembly.
