(EMAILWIRE.COM, August 05, 2013 ) West Bloomfield MI When the cuckoo bird goes insane, the local clock repair man is the one call for the cure. All Clocks Repaired is the most recommended watch and clock repair service in the area. Owner, Fred Bartholomew, fixes all types of timepieces, from pocket watches to cuckoo clocks and the highly respected and majestic grandfather clocks.
The cuckoo clock is a favorite and unique timepiece that is loved and cherished by people of all ages. Children eagerly look forward to each hour passing by so they can see the cuckoo bird come out and hear him announce the time with the appropriate amount of cuckoo calls. They love the bird and they dont care that the clock is regulated by a pendulum that strikes the hour to prompt the cuckoos call as he emerges with each chime. Even adults are fascinated by the mechanism that produces the cuckoo call, which has changed little since the 18th century.
The cuckoo clock is a true classic that will keep perfect time when properly maintained. In spite of its name, it should only go cuckoo the right amount of times and at the appropriate time. Cuckoo clock repair should only be performed by professional, but here are a few troubleshooting tips for owners:
When the cuckoo clock reads 5pm, but the cuckoo bird chimes 7 times this means the hands need to be adjusted
When the cuckoo clock gains or loses time then the pendulum needs adjusted. It may be necessary to make one slight adjustment each day until the time is accurate. Humidity and room temperature can also drive the clock cuckoo.
When the clock quits running, this can be caused by drafts from open windows, fans or heat vents. Reset the clock by moving the minute hand back half an hour and then forward to the hour and then gently swing the pendulum. Kinks in the chain can prevent the weights from coming down properly.
If the cuckoo wont chime m sure the shutoff lever is in the on position
According to clock repair experts, the cuckoo clock is a wonderful and accurate timepiece as long as it is properly adjusted and cared for. Proper installation is also very important. The cuckoo clock must be level, from front to back and from side to side.
Fred Bartholomew warns owners against DIY clock repair to avoid permanent damage, especially with antiques that cannot be replaced. When the problem is not easily fixed with the above tips then trust All Clocks Repaired to restore the cuckoos sanity and keep time moving forward accurately.
