Adjusting The Speed Of Your Grandfather Clock

Adjusting the speed or Time of your Grandfather clock, although not difficult, it can be tricky sometimes. We have included a small video that will explains how to adjust the speed of your Grandfather clock if it is running to fast or to slow.

Lowering or raising the height of the pendulum bob, will slow down or speed up the time on your Grandfather clock.

Please follow the video or the diagram to the right to adjust the speed of your clock. Please keep in mind that small increments of a turn will drastically change some clocks. We always suggest that you start out with small 1/4 to 1/2 turns at first to see how your Grandfather clock will react.  

After your first turn, set the time, than watch your clock for a 24 hour period before you make any further adjustments.
