Do not touch the hot chimney. Do not relight the oil burner before the chimney is cooled down. General Hints Wicks of oil burners with spreader caps need to be trimmed on a more regular basis, as an even flame is very important for an even light. Always keep a table lamp on an even surface. Do not leave burning lamps unattended, and keep them well out of reach of children.
All lamps are stove lacquered.
In a salt water environment it is strongly recommended that lamps should be cleaned regularly with clean water and wiped dry to avoid pitting.
