* A longcase clock work well only provided they stand on a plane surface that is even. This sounds easy but it is essential.
When positioning it flush next to the wall you may ascertain that the floor covering is not uniform in thickness. Or it is possible that the the floor is not uniform at the point where it meets the wall.
If the case lists in any direction you must set it right.
* Longcase Clock Pendulums have distinguishable front and reverse sides. The front end is commonly the the flat polished side.
The grandfather clock pendulum should swing free of all sides of the case. If it makes contact with the case walls it may mean that the case stands at an angle.
* The arrangement of weights that power the clock should stand obstruction free. They should not come into contact with the pendulum or the clock walls when they descend.
* When you initiate the pendulums motion check it out for a steady tick sound. It should be regularly spaced.
If the sound is not even it is possibly because the clock leans away from vertical. Try straightening out the case and make necessary adjustments.
* When you set the time avoid shifting your clocks hands backwards more than a few minutes. Do not ever move the clock hands back over the number twelve.
It is fine to run the hands of the clock forward. When shifting across the mid day mark hold back until your antique clock is through with striking the bell at the hour mark before you move on.
* If your clock gets behind or pulls ahead of time change the pendulums length.
Step up the length to slow down the clocks pace. Reduce the pendulum length to make the clock go faster.
