We need a manual for 1983 Ridgeway grandfather bought at a vendors mall. A beautiful Clock but gains time too fast. Can you help?
clockde says:Hi Earl,
The manual which was used for your Grandfather clock can be downloaded at:
https://www.theclockdepot.com/clock-owners-manuals/ridgeway_grandfather_clock_manual.pdf There are instructions there on how to speed up or slow your clock, but if you wish to view enhanced instructions on that issue, please go to the following page https://www.theclockdepot.com/clocks-blog/how-to-regulate-the-time-of-your-grandfather-clock/ This will solve your issues. Thank You!

This clock probably has a Hermle movement inside. The instructions for this movement can be seen at:

Hello,
I recently inherited a beautiful 50 year old Dunhaven Tambour Mantle clock (7-day key wind with Westminster chimes). It’s running fine so far but seems a bit stiff to wind. I’m concerned about how much pressure to exert for fear of “over winding” or otherwise messing up the mechanism. Do you happen to have instructions for this clock? Thank you!
Hi Sharon…You should be able to wind the clock until it becomes uncomfortably to go any farther. Most clocks cannot be over-wound, but some older clocks do not like to be wound very tight. Wind it as far as you feel comfortable and see how many days you get from that wind on your clock. If you only get three or four days it is not being wound far enough or you could just wind the clock twice a week and not worry about it.
Thank You…Robert
