These are the detailed instructions for chandelier 10740 12+6+3, which is definitely my favourite classic crystal chandelier especially in the Swarovski Spectra.

To start take the instructions out and have a good look at the base diagram, below left.

You can clearly see three bases for arms and numbering for all parts which corresponds to the packages within the box.

 

I will be doing this installation on a clothes rail, but you can tie the rope directly to the hook as this would eradicate any unnecessary moving.  The less you move the chandelier the better as there is less chance of damage to the crystals.  Please also make sure that the chandelier isn’t in your, your children’s, or your pets way so if you need to leave the room you will not come back to an injury or a broken chandelier.

Unwrap all the packages that are not numbered, these are the central parts and are very obvious as to where they go.  Hang this top central stem on the rope to keep out of harms way.

 

Take to bottom stem, loosen the grub screw and unscrew the central holding nut to take off the base plate.

 

The base plate will be completely separate from the plate cover.

Take the packet 4. and unwrap all the arms.  Take the holding nut from the end of the arm, place the arm into the base plate and replace the holding nut.  The arm has a predetermined position so make sure the arm sits flat on the base plate, a little movement left and right should slip the arm into the right place.

 

Tighten the holding nut only enough to the point where the nut bites so the arm doesn’t move freely, do not tighten any further as this could pull the arm screw out and permanently damage the arm.

 

Place all 6 arms in the correct position.

 

Put the flex through the central hole of the base plate and rest the base plate on the base cover.  Connect all 8 blue wires together  and all 8 brown wires together and slip the base plate into the base cover.

 

Place the central holding nut back on and tighten the lower grub screw.

 

Put the flex through the central cavity of the top base plate, screw the top base plate on and tighten the grub screw on the central holding nut.

 

Undo the grub screw on the central holding nut, unscrew and remove the base plate from the base plate cover.

 

Take arms 2. and place them into the top base plate – do not over tighten the nuts when securing the arms to the base plate.

 

And as with the previous base plate, put the flex through the centre, rest the base plate on the base plate cover, do the wiring, put the base plate back on the base plate cover and secure in position by placing the central holding nut back on and tighten the lower grub screw.

 

Take the flex through the centre stem of the top half, screw the top half into the central holding nut and tighten the grub screw.  Please make sure that all the visible thread is within the central holding nut before you tighten the grub screw.

 

Take the lowest base plate cover off on place the arms 10. into the base plate remembering all the points as per previous bases.

 

When all arms are done you can start the wiring.

 

All blues together, all brown together.

 

Put the base cover back on.

 

Place the dishes 7. and 6. onto the end base plate.

 

Put rings x onto the lower and middle arms.

 

 

Place trimmings A onto the top and bottom dish.

 

Place trimmings B onto the inverted top dish onto every other eye so they are above the top arms.

 

Place crystal chains onto the inverted top dish so the chains hang between the arms.

 

 

 

Place the trimmings D onto the bottom of the chain C.

 

Place the chains E onto the ends of arms 2. and trimmings F onto the end of chain E.

 

Place trimmings G onto the glass rings of arms 4.

 

Place chains H from the splitter on trimming G under the arms 10. to the corresponding splitter on the neighbouring arm.

 

Place trimmings I onto the ends of arms 4.

 

Place trimmings J onto the glass rings of arms 10.

 

Place chains K onto the eyelets on the dish 6.

 

Hook the ends of chains K into the splitters of trimmings J.

 

Place trimmings L onto the ends of arms 10.

 

Place chains M from the splitter of the trimmings L onto the corresponding splitter on the neighbouring arm.

 

Put all the arm dishes on.

 

 

Put the white candle tubes over the lamp holder.

 

Put the glass skirts over the white tubes of leave these off if you prefer.

 

Put the light bulbs in.

 

 

And now you should check that everything is connected.

I found ball N still in the box so I put it in the central nut 5.

Chain E also needed connecting onto the dishes of arms 4.

 

Well and then you can sit down and have a look at what you achieved.

 

If you have any difficulties please give us a call or you can choose to have the chandelier sent assembled which adds the postage cost but reduces your time spent on the chandelier assembly.

 

This is a very simple, but nevertheless beautiful chandelier.  It is suitable for small rooms, corridors, landings… especially in low ceiling areas. The assembly is simple but still if you don’t have any previous experience this may be of some assistance.

 

Part one is the base. This is to be screwed into the ceiling joist, the electricity cable goes through the hole with the white washer and the earth connects into the earth tab.

 

Loosen the grub screws and insert the rods into the rod holders.

The tube will protrude about 2mm on the inner side of the tube holders and tighten up the grub screw back up.

The rim has a flat horizontal ridge which the frame is sitting on.

Take the largest crystal piece of the chain in your hand , open the hook slightly and place in the hole.

Close the hook so the crystal chain doesn’t detaches itself from the frame.

When you have done this connect the other end of the crystal chain into the central plate.

Next job is to connect the two together.

Slide the rods inside the basket and rest the frame on the ends of the rods.

These two should fit together snugly, if this is not the case please loosen the grub screw and adjust.

 

This is detailed picture of how it should sit.

At this point you would be placing your chandelier onto the base plate attached to the ceiling.

The lower screw adjusts so you can regulate the position of your basket.

The electric wiring is not complicated either however has to be done by a COMPETENT person.

This is what you would see in the centre of the basket.

Screw the central nut back on to hold the chandelier in place.

And this is where you have completed the assembly.  Hope you have found these instruction helpful, however if there are any steps you find difficult please do call us for advice.

Here is the chandelier assembly example being discussed in this article.
