give it a ten count when you fill it - that's sufficient...
to change the wick remove all the packing from the cartridge - you'll see the wick - it has a thin wire in it to feed it thru the hole - chances sre your wick is fine but to trim it use tweezers to pull it up from the fire chamber and snip it with scissors...
look on the bottom of the case - you'll notice some markings - either straight lines like |||| or slanted lines like //// - the number of lines determines the year it was made up to1986 - after 1986 they used Roman numerals along with a letter A thru L - letters indicates the month, i.e. A = January, B = Febuary etc. - let me know what markings are on it and I'll tell you what year...
