Hi. For a clean burning operation you needed to do two things first. First trim the wick level or with a slight curve, ie. Trim corners so that any stray threads are removed. Then soak the whole wick by dipping it into the fuel before threading in the wick holder or after threading in place wait for the fuel to permeate up the wick to the top of the wick, maybe about 10 to 20 minutes. No smoking will occur then. If smoking occurs wind the wick down as low as possible and let it burn in for several minutes. Smoking will cause lamp black occurring on the inside of the glass. It is easy to clean off when cool. I love these machines.
That's brilliant, thank you Rachel!! I've just picked one of these up this afternoon and I've been looking at it and wondering how this was done...I'd never have worked it out on my own 😂
That’s right the shape of the wick will alter the shape of the flame, a more pointed wick will produce a pointed flame , yes cut the corners diagonally but only slightly
