The changing of flint is a fairly simple affair. You need a dime, the flint, and a piece of white paper. Placing the paper on a flat surface, put the lighter in an upright position. Grasp the body of the lighter in one hand and the casing in the other and pull. The lighter should come out of the case fairly easily. Turn the lighter over and locate the fibers at the bottom. Carefully pull the fiber from the wheel end and locate the screw. Use the dime to turn the screw and remove the tension spring. Shake the lighter to remove the old flint, then insert the new flint in the tube that the spring came from. Reinsert the spring, tighten the screw, replace the fiber, fill with fluid, and reinsert the lighter into the case.
