Once, we looked up at the stars, and we could see the size and beauty of the stars of the universe; once, we looked up and sensed the clarity and serenity of the lake; and once, when we listened, we were trapped in the ticking vortex of time. Although we can still recover all that, those years have become deeply rooted memories of our homeland。
Every month, we receive bells from many of our guests for repair and maintenance, and we often experience half a century of baptism, with visible marks on the shell that do not hide its beauty. If these bells are calculated according to market prices, few of them are valuable, but they may be accompanied by a watchman who has had his first birthday, a new home, a first job, even a first love and marriage, so even if it is “ageier” and old or not, the guests would like to hear again its loud and regular tickings and its loud and happy ears。
The wooden plyboard is on the clock
Although the clock is a big object, it is not as bad as the watch, but it does not mean it is not. It is normal to walk or fast or slow inside the clock, especially when most of the clocks have a week-long drive, strung fast, and it is normal to slow the following days. For bells, the most common problems are stoppage, silence, misinformation, etc., in addition to damage to appearances。
The german grunts
Many times, the clocks we get are gone for decades without maintenance until the "end of life" comes to us for first aid. This is the most common problem, but it is also the most difficult one because, after decades of operation, the oil that would have been in it has dried up long ago, and overloading and forced operation has resulted in severe wear and tearing of the softer brass plywood axle, resulting in loose gears and even damage to gears. Often such problems are difficult to resolve and need to be fixed on the original core plate or gear. What happens when many hours are too old to have the original parts? Find the best, or find a replacement or do it yourself. That's what our clock mechanics do on a daily basis。
Clean the gears with wood
Of course, many hours are not allowed to go, the cores are not so bad, just maintenance and simple instruction, which is more economical, but it is dirty work (which is one of the reasons why few repairers are willing to take on such work today). Maintenance, simple enough, is a full body examination of the core and cleaning, and the minor problems were solved at that time, and the big problems were contacted. Out of our responsibility to our guests, we often make simple grinding of some of the dirty cores in order to reduce unnecessary wear and remove surface stains. And the cleaning of the gears, which can't be washed in the normal way, and we're choosing to grind it with thinner wood, which is a hard job, but it has to be done。
A comparison of grinding and the unpaved plate surface
While clocks are not easily problematic in everyday life, a few points are worth noting. First, in the upper string, it is possible to avoid excessive stringing, with hair strips being metal, which can be broken in thinner conditions, as long as it is felt clearly tight enough. 2. The normal clock does not move positions frequently, but if necessary, remove them and head up. Three bells also need to be kept clean, normally three to five years to clean, and if it does not remember, then it is not normal to do so when the clock leaves, but it is probably already in question. Fourth, in addition to the core, more attention needs to be paid to the appearance of bells, which are often wood and copper, and of which the outside bells avoid tan or are placed in overture, the metal surface avoid exposure to corrosive liquids, and the stone do not thaw。
Of course, there are issues that need not be underestimated. The pointer's not right, there's a deviation from the pointer. It's probably just loose. It's not right. It's probably just wrong. It is much faster or slower to walk, adjusting the position, some of which can move up or down, and arm length is a key factor that directly affects the pace of movement. The clock stopped and stopped. Don't rush, string it up, dial it down, turn it around and see if it's okay。
