How to use

Flip open the top, strike the flint wheel to produce a spark and adjust the angle of the flame as needed while holding the lighter upright. To refill, remove the interior insert from the case, saturate the cotton packing with lighter fluid according to the fluid manufacturer’s instructions, then reassemble. Replace the flint by unscrewing the flint spring, inserting a new flint and re-securing the spring. Follow safety guidance such as allowing any spilled fluid to evaporate before ignition and keeping the lighter away from heat sources when not in use.

Usage recommendations

Use only appropriate lighter fluid designed for refillable wick-and-flint lighters and replace flints with compatible parts. Store the lighter with the lid closed and keep out of reach of children. For extended outdoor use, shield the flame from strong crosswinds and periodically check and service the wick and flint to maintain consistent ignition performance.
