Step 3: Assembly
To assemble the globe, start with the ring that has four outside notches (1) and put it carefully into the ring with the two inner and two outer notches (2). Then put the ball into the ring that has two long connectors (3). Now put one of the two small rings (4) onto the outer ring (5). Then you insert the preassembled globe into the holder and fix it on the opposite side using the second ring (4). Finally, insert the globe into the stand (6).
