If your clock does not strike the correct number of times use this procedure to correct it.

Before attempting to synchronize the strike mechanism with the hands, be sure the clock is wound (see instructions above).

Turn the minute hand (longest hand) to the “6” on the dial (if you pass “12”, stop and let the clock strike). At “6”, stop and let the clock strike; if it does not strike one time, then move the minute hand pass “12” without stopping, and then stop at “6”. The clock should now strike once. Now turn the hand to “12” and stop. Count the number of strikes and then carefully move the smaller or hour hand (grasp the smaller hand near the center arbor when turning) to that number on the dial. (Example, if the clock strikes five, move the hour hand to “5” on the dial). Your clock is now synchro­nized. Now, to set the clock, move the minute hand around the dial letting the clock strike at "6" and "12" until the correct time is reached.
