Setup
Fueling the Lighter
To ensure proper operation, the lighter must be filled with appropriate lighter fluid.
- Open the lighter lid.
- Pull the inner unit (insert) completely out of the outer case.
- Turn the inner unit upside down and lift the felt pad at the bottom.
- Slowly saturate the cotton packing with Ronson or high-quality lighter fluid. Stop filling when the fluid reaches the top of the packing or begins to change color.
- Replace the felt pad and carefully insert the inner unit back into the outer case.
- Wipe any excess fluid from the lighter and your hands before use.
Important: Use only Ronson or high-quality lighter fluid. Do not overfill. Ensure the lighter is dry before attempting to ignite.
Operating the Lighter
Follow these steps to ignite your Ronson Banjo Oil Lighter:
- Open the lighter lid.
- Firmly strike the flint wheel downwards with your thumb to create a spark.
- Once ignited, hold the lighter steady.
- To extinguish the flame, simply close the lid. This will cut off the oxygen supply and put out the flame.
Caution: Keep fingers clear of the flame. Do not keep the flame lit for extended periods.
Maintenance
Replacing the Flint
When the lighter fails to produce a spark, the flint may need replacement.
- Open the lighter lid and remove the inner unit.
- Unscrew the flint spring at the bottom of the inner unit.
- Remove the old flint and spring.
- Insert a new Ronson or high-quality flint into the flint tube.
- Reinsert the flint spring and screw it back in tightly.
Replacing the Wick
If the wick becomes too short or charred, it may need to be replaced or adjusted.
- Open the lighter lid and remove the inner unit.
- Using tweezers, gently pull the wick up until a clean section is exposed. Trim the charred portion.
- If the wick is too short, remove the felt pad and cotton packing. Pull the wick through the chimney from the inside. Replace cotton packing and felt pad.
Cleaning
To maintain the appearance of your brass lighter, wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a brass cleaner according to the product's instructions, taking care to avoid contact with the internal components.
