Ahhh, dang. I doubt I can do it. With my hand tremors I don't think I should trust myself to keep the globe steady enough while my 2nd hand is dealing with the screws. Welp.

Replace the burnt out bulb(s), put the globe back in place and carefully, barely snug, then back off each 1/4 turn the 4 screws up till they gently hold the globe in place.

DO NOT put larger bulbs that were in there, in place.

DO NOT try it while the globe is hot.

DO NOT perform the operation while drunk.

DO USE a step stool or step ladder NOT a kitchen chair to stand on.
