STEP 3
HANGING WEIGHTS
Most clocks use three weights. The bottom of each weight is labeled as to its
proper hanging position as you view your clock from the front. The total weight of
each weight is slightly different and each WEIGHT MUST BE INSTALLED IN ITS
CORRECT LOCATION FOR THE CLOCK TO OPERATE PROPERLY. Check the
weights to ensure that they are tightly assembled.
CAUTION: Ensure that each link of each chain is properly positioned on the
teeth of the sprocket. Hang each weight on the solid hook at the end of the
chain, never on the chain links. (See figure 11).
STEP 4
SETTING MOON DIAL (available on some models)
With your fingertips, apply slight pressure to the front of the moon dial and rotate
the moon dial clockwise until the moon is directly below the #15 lunar day mark
(each mark represents a lunar day) on the lunar arch (See figure 12).
If the moon dial will not rotate, see the Trouble Shooting Section.
Refer to an almanac or calendar and determine the date of the last full moon.
Count the number of days past the last full moon.
Rotate the moon dial clockwise 1 lunar day for every day past the full moon.
Example: If the last full moon was 3 days ago, rotate the moon dial
clockwise 3 lunar days so that the moon is centered at lunar day 18 on the lunar
arch.
The moon dial is now set and will indicate the proper moon phases as long as the
clock operates continuously. If the clock stops the moon dial will also stop and
can be reset when the clock is started again.
STEP 5
SETTING TIME (moving the hands)
To set the time, slowly move ONLY THE MINUTE HAND counterclockwise (back-
wards) until hour and minute hand are at the correct time. (See figure 13).
DO NOT MOVE THE HOUR HAND WHEN SETTING THE TIME. This hand will
move automatically when the minute hand is moved. If the clock begins to chime
while setting the time, stop moving the hands until chiming is complete. The
movement has a self correcting feature which synchronizes the chimes with the
time. If after setting the clock on time, it does not chime properly, permit it to
operate 2 hours to correct itself.
STEP 6
STARTING CLOCK
Reach through the front door of the clock and place your hand on the side of the
pendulum disk.
Move the pendulum to the far left of center and release. Let the clock run a few
minutes until the pendulum settles into an even swinging motion. (See figure 14).
If your clock gains or loses time after 24 hours, see General Information Section
to regulate the timekeeping of your clock.
