8-Day Mechanical Wall Clock Kit

Description: Pendulum Installation Grid R and A style pendulum with a hook top . At the bottom of the pendulum is the rating assembly . A rating assembly is the nut and threads that hold the pendulum bob on. As the name rating nut and threads indicates, its function is to adjust the time keeping of the clock. If you turn the nut at the bottom as to raise the pendulum bob a little, this will speed up time. Do the reverse for slowing of time. Do not touch the pendulum with your bare hands as you can discolor it. It is best to use gloves or a rag to handle it. After the movement is in, it's only a matter of hanging the pendulum on the leader. The leader is the hanger on the back of the movement that swings the pendulum back and forth. This concludes the Westminster Spring-Driven Clock-Kit Installation Instructions Wall Clock Kit This is an 8-Day Mechanical Wall Clock Kit, German made, gong strike, spring driven movement. It has the popular 131-041 25cm Hermle clock movement. This is the movement with the hammer on the back that strikes a gong. Also, the kit comes with the movement, gong with mount, the pendulum, hands and a key. So this is a complete clock without the wood case. Case Requirements The best thing to do is to get the movement first and then build the case afterward. The movements hand shaft, (shaft that the hands go on) is 27.2mm from the front plate and all the way out. In addition, this measurement is shown within the diagram's depth measurement. Measure the pendulum length on this unit from the top of the clock movements suspension post and all the way down on this 8-Day Mechanical Wall Clock Kit. Moreover, this measurement is 25cm and the pendulum tip to tip. So this means it the suspension spring, leader, and the complete pendulum. Mounting Options The Hermle 131 movement series in this 8-Day Mechanical Wall Clock Kit are usually able to mount from the front or the back. However this one is a gong strike. Therefore the preference is a front mount. Although, it can be a back strike if you get creative. However the gong could get in the way since it is a rear hammer unit. Front Mount Method A front mounting method would use the enclosed dog ear looking brackets. Install these on the front plates pillar posts, under the hex nut that is holding the front on. Of course only loosen one at a time as to not let the movement come apart. Install the movement to the front of the clock case. Do this with a board between the front of the movement and the clock dial. Shipping Shipping cost:Clockworks products are shipped out within a day or two of purchase.
