RAISING WEIGHTS
The weights must be raised every seven (7) days or the clock will stop.
FLOOR CLOCK: Cables with pulleys
Weights that are suspended by cables with pulleys should be raised by using the
crank provided. DO NOT lift the weights by hand while cranking. Insert the crank
into the crank holes located in the dial face (See figure 15), and turn the crank
counterclockwise. This will raise the weights.
FLOOR CLOCK: Chains
IMPORTANT: PULL STRAIGHT DOWN ON THE CHAIN.
DO NOT lift up on the weights as this could cause the weights to come unhooked
from the chains. Pull down on the loose end of the chain until the weight is
approximately 2” from the bottom of the wood movement mounting board. (See
figure 16).
REGULATING TIMEKEEPING
Changing the speed of time keeping is accomplished by moving the pendulum
disk up or down. The pendulum disk is moved up or down by turning the
adjustment nut. To slow the clock down, move the pendulum disk down by turning
the adjustment nut to the left.
To speed the clock up, move the pendulum disk up by turning the adjustment nut
to the right. (See figure 17).
Day One
1. Select a time of day that will allow you to check your clock at
the same time for at least six days.
2. Record time selected __________________________________.
3. Check correct time.
4. Re-set the minute hand to the exact, correct time.
Day Two, Three, Four, Five, Six (If Necessary)
1. Check correct time.
2. Compare time shown on your clock with correct time. Is your
clock fast or slow?
3. Turn the adjustment nut on the pendulum . One complete
revolution equals approximately one half (1/2) minute fast or slow per
day. (24 hours). Accurate time adjustment varies for every pendulum.
4. Check correct time.
5. Re-set the minute hand to exact, correct time.
AUTOMATIC NIGHTTIME SHUT OFF (available on some models)
Some clock models feature an option which will automatically silence the chime
and hour strike during the nighttime hours. This feature (available on some models)
is activated either by a lever on the left hand side of the dial, or by pushing up on a
rod located under the dial. The model of your clock will determine if it has the lever
or rod.
If your clock remains silent during the daytime hours, you need to re-set the clock
hands back 12 hours. First, take the movement out of nighttime shutoff, then move
the hands backwards 12 hours, rotate the minute hand (only) counterclockwise to
the correct time.
To allow the clock to chime and strike 24 hours, move the lever out of nighttime
silence or pull down on the rod located under the dial.
ILLUMINATED CASES (available on some models)
Some clocks have lights illuminating the inside of the clock case. Carefully remove
the paper sleeve from the light bulb before operating the light.
