Brass burners have finer threads than brass-plated burners. #1 collar has a 7/8″ opening, but the thread size can vary from fine to coarse. General replacement rule: best to use brass burner if lamp collar is brass; use brass-plated burner if collar is brass-plated.

Oil Lamp Guide
- Only use “lamp oil” as a fuel source. Other oil types can cause fires and/or damage oil burners.
- Leave at least a ½ inch of head-space when filling up your oil lamp.
- Keep lamp reservoir half full so that wick stays properly saturated
- Oil lamps burn approximately ½ ounce of lamp oil per hour.
- Trim off charred edge of wick after every couple uses. If charred residue is not kept trimmed, wick will likely smoke and provide dim light.
- Replace lamp chimney once lamp is lit to protect flame from drafts.
- Oil lamps are only for indoor use.
- Caution: A burning oil lamp should not be left unattended. Lamps should be placed out of the reach of children.
