Here's how I lit my Optimus 00 stove 7 years ago now (it's 2019 already!). Hope this helps you folks out there who are challenged the first time through. Here are a couple of other videos that you may wish to watch that feature better video quality. youtu.be/9Y1sTEiBU7I and youtu.be/Z_zRgcmSWh0
Don't forget to make sure the vent screw is open before lighting the preheat alcohol! 😃👍
