Lighting Lantern

Step 1

Turn the valve to HIGH and push the ignite button. The valve should click and a spark should ignite the mantles. If the lantern fails to light, repeat this step. If the lantern does not light after several tries, turn the valve to OFF and inspect the lantern.

Push the ignite button and watch for a spark from the electrode. If no spark occurs, check the electrode gap. The gap should be approximately 3/16". If necessary, remove the lantern top by turning the nut counter-clockwise. Carefully lift off the shield assembly and the glass globe, bend the flat electrode to set the gap.

If the lantern is wet due to rain or humidity, etc., the electrode may fail to spark. If this is the case, hold a lighted match near, but not touching, the mantle and turn the valve to HIGH. When both mantles are lit, reassemble the lantern carefully.
