Ok we have finally reached the point of this post.
Wall clock stops after a few minute.
Tick is erratic and stops after a few minutes pendulum appears to be properly hung read more.

How to set the beat of the pendulum clock.
I have read up a bit on this.
For example set the clock to 5 minutes before 12 to see if the pendulum stops a minute or so after the cuckoo clock hands meet.
This section is for weight driven clocks westminster or other 15 minute melodies not chiming the hour on the hour.
If this is causing the cuckoo clock to stop try pushing the hour hand toward the clock face to snap it back in to proper position doing so will keep the hands from binding and free up the movement.
It is not broken only out of beat.
The clock only runs for a few minutes and then it stops.
Pendulum clocks stop for a variety of reasons but can usually be restarted.
The act of putting the pendulum in motion causes the clock to run until it eventually slows to a stop.
This can actually a good sign.

The movement is not actually running on it s own power.
For wall clocks always remove your pendulum before taking the clock off the wall.
I bought a new one figured this one was done for and the same way works when laying on the table but stops when hanging on the wall.
To carry th eclock after i bought it we unscrewed the weights and have screwed it back now.

I have a kienzle mantle clock 1950 s.
This only takes a few minutes to readjust and all pendulum clock owners should learn how as this will happen eventually.
My wall clock s pendulum stops working after just a couple of minutes.
However the pendulum does swing in a diagonal back to front motion rather than just side to side.
The movement of the pendulum and the clock s ticking make a pleasant counterpoint to the pace of modern life until the pendulum stops swinging.
