Maintenance Tips

• Precision leveling required: Keep movement perfectly vertical for accurate sequence (SEQ) chime timing.
• Wind consistently: Follow manufacturer schedule; avoid irregular winding to protect gear train.
• Lubrication every 3–5 years: Use high-grade clock oil only; prevents wear and ensures smooth SEQ triple chime operation.
• Keep dust-free: Protect movement and chime components from dust buildup for stable performance.
• Humidity control: Store in a dry, stable environment to prevent corrosion and wood/movement distortion.
• Chime sequence care (SEQ): Verify hammer strike timing for clean, synchronized triple chime sequence.
• Avoid forcing key: Never overwind; stop at natural resistance.
• Professional servicing: Full inspection and overhaul recommended every 5–7 years for long-term reliability.
