Keywound pendulum clocks usually need to be wound once per week to keep the clock running. This is done by inserting the key into the clock in the holes in the dial (winding arbors). These may turn clockwise or counterclockwise to wind depending on the model. Wind until tight and don’t...
Note that this is indeed a mild assumption, since by a suitable adjustment/design of the escapement mechanism, it is possible to keep the amplitude of the oscillations in the pendulum of the clock within a small value. If the assumption of small oscillations holds, then the dynamic behaviour ...
If the beat is irregular like: tock,tick——tock, tick- an adjustment must be made or the clock will stop. This can be done by either try leveling again from left to right by moving the clock very slightly from the bottom until you hear the most even tick-tock. This may not be phy...
