Very nice find, congratulations. As for box numbers: the carton manufacturers would also keep track of box sizes, mould use to stamp and...
The pump cup is as said leather. yours looks good so soak it with light oil as for a sewing machine and after soaking for a while bend the rim...
These lamps are on/off, so no adjustment of light output. In inside of the vaporiser there should be a rolled up metal gauze. The HASAG / Schtaz...
The 500cp geniol is a standard size lantern. Is it a matt grey military version or normal civilian? Any petromax 500cp clone tank will fit, if you...
Good buy ! It is always good to buy vaporisers. You can't have to many.
Well it is an interesting idea to think about. New parts are smooth, old parts can be rough, hence more air resistance. But also when you chance...
Looking at the vaporiser and needle rod I think the best option is to buy new ones. Together with needle and jet.
@Martin K. , the dimensions of the J-tube should be identical so shape wise there is no reason. For me "needling' is the way to solve a back burm...
I don't have an Optimus 930. But for a Petromax 350 it is 14,2mm +/- 0,5mm
Short answer: no there is no rubber there. Long version: after releasing the nut, the vaporiser should come off. If not, remove the needle, if...
There is no reason to swap the J-tube. Unless it has dents or is not original. Back burn has 99% of the times to do with less pressure. Less...
Looks like a HASAG, like on the tank mentioned, but it needs some work. The ring which holds the to small glass must be removed and a right size...
To my knowledge is this a Petromax type clone. So all Petromax parts of the right size should fit. Who sells these in your part of the world, I...
The same condensation happens to bottoms when placed on shelf's. The air trapped under the tank bottom can rust a lantern over time. So de...
For me it looks more American. Tanks looks like a military stove part. Best guess is made from available parts by a company or someone.
Depends the small 150cp lanterns do have an other handle construction. Questions why does the topic starter thinks it is a Petromax when there is...
Off coarse he is ... ;-) You may ask base camp if they still have the right type of mantles.
Some ideas from my late friend Wilhelm.
As always: are all the parts original? The pre heater disc looks home made. The filler cap with screw may be a replacement. Besides gasoline it...
Using the coiled or straight vaporiser, the mixing tube, inner hood makes it a copy. And yes they all copied or bought competitors out or build in...
