 1. To refill the tail docker, push the nozzle of the lighter fuel container into the filler hole and press until the fuel begins to overflow.
2. Light the tail docker by pushing the black button forward towards the knife, clicking the red button and turning the gas to +.
3. when you are finished, the tail docker is turned off by pushing the black button backwards. it is recommended to dock tail without force, i. e. allow the knife to burn it's ways though the tail(1/2 seconds) in that way the wound will have time to close through the temperature cauterisation. when docking too fast, bleeding can occur which may lead to infection, 

Warning:
1. never fill with gas close to open fire and never when the tail docker is on
2. the gas burner must not be exposed to temperatures above  50℃  or excessive sunlight
