This lamp contains an interesting secret. It is quite difficult to disassemble for maintenance and refueling. I think that's why the seller sold this lamp very cheaply, he could not disassemble it.
The wick of this lamp is ignited by a lighter built into the body. But this lighter didn't work either.
Recovery process:
I unscrewed the bottom of the lamp using a thin awl. Then I dismantled the lighter into small parts and found a malfunction. After I cleaned and polished all brass parts and reassembled in reverse order.
The lamp body was quite oxidized and also needed a thorough cleaning. To do this, I used a soft brass nozzle on a drill.
Then I painted some parts, filled the fuel tank with lighter gasoline, installed new flint.
I enjoyed working with this old lamp, and I was also pleased with the result of my work.
Hope you enjoy this video as well! I will be grateful for your support in the form of "Like" and comments.
See you next week!
Best wishes Max!
