Troubleshooting
Pen is not writing or skipping
Ensure the ink cartridge/converter is properly seated. Clean the nib and feed using cool water. Check that the ink has reached the nib. Try a different ink if the current one is old or unusually viscous.
Ink is leaking
Check that the cap and barrel are screwed on tightly. Ensure the piston converter or cartridge is securely attached. Avoid overfilling the converter. Store the pen properly when not in use.
Nib feels scratchy
Ensure you are writing with the correct angle and pressure. Clean the nib and feed, as dried ink can cause roughness. Examine the nib for any damage; if present, professional servicing may be required.
Gold-coated clip is tarnished
Gently polish the clip with a soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the gold coating.

If using a piston converter, immerse the nib into ink and slowly turn the knob to draw ink into the converter.
If using ink cartridges, insert the cartridge firmly into the section until it clicks.

Care:

Wipe the barrel and cap with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Store the pen horizontally or nib-up when not in use to prevent ink leakage.
Avoid dropping the pen or exposing it to extreme temperatures.
