Assembly is required for this clock. Follow these steps carefully:
4.1 Отпакување
- Carefully remove the clock and all components from the packaging.
- Remove any protective wrapping or foam from the clock movement and internal parts.
4.2 Монтирање на часовникот
Часовникот е дизајниран за монтирање на ѕид.
- Choose a sturdy wall location, away from vibrations or drafts.
- Use appropriate wall anchors and screws suitable for the clock's weight (approximately 3 kg / 6.6 lbs).

- Carefully hook the pendulum onto the hanger. Ensure it swings freely without obstruction.
4.4 Installing the Weights
If your clock uses weights for power, follow these steps:
- Identify the chains or cables for the weights.
- Carefully attach the weights to their respective hooks or pulleys. Ensure they hang freely.
4.5 Поставување време
- Gently move the minute hand (the longer hand) clockwise until the correct time is displayed.

- Once the correct time is set, gently push the pendulum to start it swinging.
5. Работење
5.1 Winding the Movement
This clock features an 8-day mechanical movement, meaning it needs to be wound approximately once a week.
- Insert the winding key into the winding holes on the dial.
- Turn the key clockwise until you feel resistance. Do not overwind.
- If your clock is weight-driven, simply pull the chains down until the weights are at the top.
5.2 Understanding the Chime
The clock features a 1/2 hour bell mechanism. It will strike once on the half-hour and the corresponding number of times on the hour.
- The chime mechanism is synchronized with the time setting. If the chime does not match the time, refer to the troubleshooting section.
5.3 Adjusting Time Accuracy
The accuracy of a mechanical clock can be adjusted by altering the effective length of the pendulum.
- To make the clock run побрзо, raise the pendulum bob slightly by turning the adjustment nut at the bottom of the pendulum clockwise.
- To make the clock run побавно, lower the pendulum bob slightly by turning the adjustment nut counter-clockwise.
- Make small adjustments and observe the clock's accuracy over several days before making further changes.
6. Одржување
6.1 Чистење
- Надворешност: Dust the clock case regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For the gold finish, avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Бирач и стрелки: Use a soft, dry brush or cloth to gently clean the dial and hands. Do not use liquids.
- Стакло: Clean the glass with a soft cloth and a mild glass cleaner, spraying the cleaner onto the cloth first, not directly onto the clock.
6.2 Подмачкување
The mechanical movement of your clock requires periodic professional cleaning and lubrication, typically every 5-10 years, depending on environmental conditions. Do not attempt to lubricate the movement yourself, as this can cause damage. Contact a qualified clockmaker for this service.
