How to use and care
• Cartridge: remove the barrel, pull out the empty cartridge with the nib pointing up and push the new one in straight without twisting, otherwise the valve may not open. • CON-40 converter for bottled ink: fit it with the nib up, turn the knob to the left, dip the nib into the ink up to the end of the section and turn the knob to the right to draw ink; do not press the nib against the bottom of the bottle. • With the first cartridge, gently squeeze it after inserting so the ink reaches the nib. • Change cartridges with the nib pointing up so ink does not spill. Always close the cap firmly when not writing. • Use Pilot fountain pen ink; mixed or old ink can damage the pen. Do not drop the pen.
