Report about 30 hour longcase empty case
* A grandfather clock must always be on a surface that is horizontal. This is elementary but it is quite critical.
When placing it flush next to the wall you might perhaps notice that the floor covering or rug is lumpy and not even. Or it may be true that the the floor is not even at the point where it meets the wall.
If the clock tilts in any direction you should get the clock vertical.
* Grandfather Clock Pendulums have a distinguishable front side. The face of the pendulum most often is the the side that is polished and more or less flat.
The pendulum bob must swing free of the walls of the case. If it hits the case maybe it means that the tower leans to a side.
* The assembly of weights that supply energy to the clock should be free and clear of obstructions. They should not be touching the pendulum or the clock casing as they drop.
* When you set the pendulum in motion check it out for a steady ticking sound. It should be of fixed interval.
If the sound is not even it is possibly because the surface is not level. Try to make the case stand right and make required adjustments.
* When you modify the time do not shift the hands of the longcase clock towards the back by more than a few minutes. Do not under any circumstances move them backwards over the mid day mark.
It is fine to shift the hands of the clock forward. When running them across the twelve o clock mark hold on till your clock is done with striking the bell at the hour mark before going forward.
* If the grandfather clock loses or gains time vary the length of the pendulum arrangement.
Add to the length to decelerate the clock. Reduce the pendulum length to to accelerate the clock.
