The batteries will need replacing when the cuckoo sound is very low or when the cuckoo doors no longer open.From here, you can then move the minute hand in a clockwise direction until the correct time is reached. If the clock does not cuckoo the correct number, simply move the hour hand to the number that corresponds to the cuckoo calls it just cuckooed and your clock will then be resynchronized. ![]() You will hear it click inside as it goes past each hour. Alternatively, you can silence the clock whilst setting the time, by switching the cuckoo to “Off” and move the minute hand freely without having to wait for the cuckoo each hour. Allowing the clock to cuckoo at every hour, move the minute hand in a clockwise direction until you reach the correct time. To set the time, ensure the cuckoo switch is ‘ on’.The clock has a special counter inside, so the instructions need to be followed carefully to set the time.

If the clock has a spring loaded adjustment nut instead of a leaf, simply follow the same steps by shortening or lengthening the pendulum with the nut. If the clock is 5 mins fast, move the leaf 5 mm down and then also adjust the minute hand back by 5 mins. If the clock is 5mins slow, move the leaf up 5mm and then put the minute hand forward by 5mins. If Fast : Move the leaf up the pendulum to speed it up to the required amount of minutes and then adjust the minute hand back the amount of minutes it is fast by.If Slow : Move the leaf down the pendulum to slow it down the required amount of minutes and also adjust the minute hand forward the amount of minutes it is slow by. ![]() One millimeter on the pendulum equals approximately a 1-minute adjustment in a 24 hour period. Move the leaf on the pendulum up or down to increase or decrease the speed of the clock. For further clarification please see the picture below.Alternatively, you can switch the silence lever to ‘off’ and move the minute hand without having to let the cuckoo call.
