8. Winding the clock
The weights or springs of your clock should be wound regularly and evenly. Leaving the strike
mechanisms unwound can lead to jamming of the time mechanism. As a general rule, silencing the
chime mechanisms should be done by using the function(s) of the chime selector levers, only (see
section 7).
When winding clocks without maintaining power the automatic beat adjustment can shift out of
alignment. The clock should therefore be re-started (see section 6) and the time be re-set (see section
5.1) after winding is completed.
When winding the clock, and if possible, use your free hand to stabilize the clock case.
8.1 Cable movements
Insert the crank key provided into the crank holes located in the dial face as far as possible.
Depending on movement the time, (if available) melody chime and hour strike mechanisms are
wound clockwise or counterclockwise until the respective weight stops or is approximately 2" from
the bottom of the wood movement mounting board (picture 12 - see page 25).
Refer to the winding directions for Your movement (check product identification on page 48) in the
following table:
Never wind the clock without having weights attached or lift the weights by hand while cranking.
This could result in the cables becoming tangled and jamming of the movement.
