I think i assemble wrong there is no instructions. Do I keep the plastic wrap on the wax? I did not & it would not Light.

No, you have to remove the plastic. That was one of my many problems with these lanterns, they were impossible to light!

No! You unwrap the wax! Then you thread the wire through it and unfold the wire to hold the brick in place. Hope this helps!

I removed the plastic wrap and they worked for me! I just had to scratch off some of the coating to make it light! The corner is the easiest place to light from if you break a little bit off.

I would love to help you but I am not able to. I just kept trying different ways to assemble it and finally it came together. Why the company didn't either include directions or print them on the carton is beyond me.Sorry (I hate to admit it, but I am also an engineer)!

Sorry I sent it as a gift. I think you could probably google instructions. Good luck :)

It should give you instructions in the booklet which comes with it,as I don't remember from memory the step by step process.Try that.Good luck.

I would look for another light. Several bottoms did not work and there was no instruction book which might have helped.Wish I could get my money back.

Put the can of wax in melting pot and turn it on. Make sure to take the lid off of the can.

I remember it being kind of difficult but I assembled mine two or three years ago so I am not much help. I think I just gently persevered and it worked. Maybe lubricate with some WD40? I might have done that. Good luck. If all else fails I would call the manufacturer to get hints from them. Hopefully by the time you get this you will have it worked out.

This is hot wax. You need an iron to apply it. You melt it onto the base then iron it in. Once it cools you scrape it off with a plastic scraper. You can then finish the base with a brush and some scotch brite. This was is not meant to be a rub on wax, there is a different kind of wax for that application.

it might have welded its self in place if air got in it from the manufacture. Try rotating the bulb on its installed axis. I returned the one we bought because it came damaged and your right it was a very dull bulb. Good Luck

sorry, I had someone do it for me. they did say that the key is making sure that the surface was completely clean(use rubbing alcohol). they also use a wax pencil to make light marks for placement alignment. The wax came right off when they were done. I hope this helps.

I would contact the manufacturer to see if they have online instructions you can download. If not I would return it. Hard enough to put together WITH the instructions.

How is it possible that there are three different answers to the same question ? I found no good instructions, only one foggy picture on the box .. Took a while to figure out what the pieces included were . still have not figured out what the white piece of plastic is for I only needed a pliers.,I think I assembled it correctly .

Sorry for the delay in response; my husband installed this and I'm sure he had to put the light piece on, if I'm understanding your question? The light kit came with the lamp and he put the whole thing up. I can ask him for more detail, if you'd like it. We like the light alot....good luck!

You're supposed to be able to assemble them carefully and then light the little wax piece on the wire. They were very difficult for us as well, and the ones we did get to light got too hot and the paper smoldered. Unfortunately. Good luck

the instructions for mine came with the item-if yours is missing I would contact the manufacture. they should be able to email it to me..

I softened the wax slightly with a small flame (any lighter will do) then scored the wax with a razor blade. Then I snipped off the plastic with some wire cutters. You can also reattach broken off pieces by "melting" them back on.
