re "Hold a lighted match near the mantel and turn on the gas valve. The mantel should begin to burn."

I have always thought you needed to burn the mantle before turning on the gas.

This is from one lantern instruction page... "Light bottom of MANTLE evenly. Burn until nothing but white ash remains. Once the mantle has been burned, it is very fragile. Be careful not to touch it with finger or match."

"Burn the mantle as stated on the mantle package." I read in another set of instructions.

Does this vary by mantle ? GG (talk) 19:20, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

 * It's a sign that I'm having trouble concentrating on work today. I really ought to be debugging a project I'm working on, but my brain refuses to start.  Maybe the beautiful weather has something to do with it. --Jomegat (talk) 19:48, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
