Fasi di installazione

Follow these steps to install the clock mechanism and hands:

1. Insert Clock Movement: Pass the clock movement shaft through the center hole of your clock face (not included).
2. Place Fixing Metal Sheet: Slide the fixing metal sheet onto the shaft from the front of the clock face.
3. Add Rubber Gasket: Place the rubber gasket onto the shaft, ensuring it sits flush against the clock face.
4. Secure with Washer and Hex Nut: Place the washer onto the shaft, followed by the hex nut. Tighten the hex nut gently to secure the movement to the clock face. Do not overtighten.
5. Attach Hour Hand: Carefully press the hour hand onto the hour shaft.
6. Attach Minute Hand: Carefully press the minute hand onto the minute shaft.
7. Attach Second Hand: Carefully press the second hand onto the second shaft.

Installazione della batteria

Insert one (1) AA battery (not included) into the battery compartment on the back of the clock mechanism, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).

Note importanti per l'installazione

• Ensure the hour hand and minute hand are parallel to each other and do not touch.
• Avoid applying excessive pressure during installation to prevent bending the hands or damaging the mechanism.
• Verify that all hands clear each other and the clock face as they rotate.

Istruzioni per l'uso

Impostazione dell'ora

To set the correct time, gently rotate the adjustment knob located on the back of the clock mechanism. Turn the knob clockwise until the hands display the desired time.

Manutenzione

Sostituzione della batteria

Replace the AA battery annually or when the clock stops functioning or begins to lose time. Always use a fresh, high-quality AA battery for optimal performance.

Pulizia

To clean the clock hands and mechanism, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the components.

Risoluzione dei problemi

Clock Not Moving or Incorrect Time

• Controllare la batteria: Ensure the AA battery is inserted correctly with the proper polarity and has sufficient power. Replace with a new battery if necessary.
• Hand Interference: Verify that the clock hands are not bent, touching each other, or rubbing against the clock face or glass cover. Gently adjust the hands if they are interfering.
• Installazione sicura: Confirm that the hex nut securing the mechanism to the clock face is tightened appropriately. Loose components can affect timekeeping.
• Compatibilità dell'albero: Ensure the chosen mechanism's shaft length is compatible with your clock panel's thickness. An incorrect shaft length can lead to improper hand attachment.
