to place shims under the front of
the clock to force it to lean back
against the wall. If this isn’t
done, the clock may sway or
worse yet, fall over!
The case must also be leveled
side-to-side. Place a bubble
level in the bottom of the case
and shim one side or the other
until the case is leveled.
The case must be back against the wall and level side-to-side before the movement is
reinstalled.
Reinstall the movement, weight, and pendulum using the instructions for “Moving the

Setting the Beat
One final adjustment will be necessary once the clock has
been relocated and properly set up. The clock must “tick-
tock” evenly; like a metronome. This is accomplished by
turning the knob on the beat adjuster small amounts (while
the pendulum is stopped) until the tick and tock occur on
equal sides of the center of the pendulum’s swing. The
adjuster is located just behind and below the dial, where the
pendulum attaches to the leader.
