    Just to be clear, in the UK, I believe, what you call paraffin is kerosene to us in the States. We have a separate oil called paraffin, which is a more refined kerosene suitable for interior home use, is often colored for oil lamps, but is available in clear.

    As Penfold50 suspect, the knob should point up when pumping a pressure / start an pre- heating ignition. And, few secs of pre-heating, turn the knob slowly on full burning mode, and shut down the pre valve, and ya´l good to go.

    Paraffin/kerosene is pumped through a jet at high pressure, this comes in contact with a pre-heated vaporiser at the top of the lamp, this turns the kerosene spray into vapour which mixes with air, and burns and heats a ceramic fibre 'mantle' which glows white hot.

    The petromax hk500 is a lot of trouble. It rarely works and you will spend a lot on spare parts and more time fiddling with it than actual burning hours. It is not made well enough. The needle does not completely close of. The pre burner stops very often and hard to ignite. The mixing chamber either comes loose or breaks of. The plastic pressure nob snaps your fingers. The pressure build up takes forever and during pre burning you get a sore thumb! Just buy a few good old fashioned oil lamps and save yourself 200 euro and more plus additional spare parts. By nature i realy like these type of items but this is just adding trouble and stress to your life
