Conversion Pump usage question

[LouisQC]

A newbie question...

Is the pump supposed to be refilled by dipping the nib into the ink or is one supposed to remove the conversion pump and dip it's collar into the ink? Basically, do you remove the pump from the nib section?

 

[Jim15]

I might be wrong but I think you can do it either way. I generally leave the nib attached and fill through it.

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

Yes either way would work but I leave the nib attached also, just be sure that the nib is below the feed hole and that when it's full release 3 drops out.

 

[PTJeff]

What's the purpose of 3 drops?

I'm the odd one out so far, I prefer to remove the converter and dip it in the ink. I seem to make marginally less mess this way.

I guess there's two of us.
