Petromax 500hk

    Hello,


    My lantern is a Petromax 500 hk made in china. I have a couple of problems with this lantern.


    Problem 1. The cleaning rod part #101 is off center/not in the middle of the generator, when the needle is in the up position it gets bent. What is the best way to fix this?


    Problem 2. The rivet attached to the handle in top of the lantern frame has popped out and broken. I think this is poor manufacturing fault and cant be fixed by hammering it back in, there looks to be not enough metal holding the rivet on when pushed back on.


    thanks

    Hi hangul,
    your first problem can be solved by a new injector nozzle. Normally the nozzle leads the needle though the hole, but if the nozzle is somewhat knaggy from the inner site, the needle will bend.


    Problem 2: Never seen that before. Perhaps it could be hard-soldered?

    Can someone translate the following words into English?
