How to Properly Use
Roman Candles

Pre-Show Setup

• Set your Roman Candles into a bucket of sand or into the ground with the fuse end pointing up at a 45-60 degree angle.
• Make sure you have a clear, open space to light.
• Have a hose, fire extinguisher, or water supply on hand in case of emergencies.
• Make sure your audience is a safe distance away, a minimum of 100 feet.
• Keep Roman Candles in their packaging until you are ready to use.

Using Roman Candles

• Be sure to wear Safety Glasses and Safety Gloves when lighting.
• Use a Sky King Torch, punk or extended lighter to light.
• Use a flashlight at night so you can see the fuse.
• After you light the Roman candle move a safe distance away.
• Track the trajectory of the flight path of the Roman candle to make sure it comes down cold and does not start a grass or brush fire.
• Never re-use a candle that fails to light the first time, use a hose or other water source to soak the candle and safely dispose of the candle outdoors.

Product Warning

• Do not use with Alcohol.
• Never attempt to take a candle apart.
• Never hold a Roman candle during functioning.
• Never put your head or any part of your body over a candle.
