Setup

1. Unboxing and Inspection

Carefully remove the clock from its packaging. Inspect the clock for any signs of damage. Ensure all components are present. The clock is designed with a distressed black dial, white Roman numerals, and exposed silver gears.

2. Battery Installation

The clock requires three AA batteries (not included) for full functionality. Two AA batteries power the moving gears, and one AA battery powers the clock hands movement. Locate the two separate battery compartments on the back of the clock.

• Open the larger compartment for the moving gears and insert two AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
• Open the smaller compartment for the clock hands movement and insert one AA battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).

3. Setting the Time

After installing the batteries, turn the hand setting knob located on the back of the clock's movement compartment to set the correct time. The clock hands and gears can operate simultaneously or independently.

4. Mounting the Clock

The clock features a keyhole hanger on the back for easy wall mounting. Ensure the mounting surface is sturdy enough to support the clock's weight (approximately 5.5 pounds or 2.5 kg).

Operating the Clock

1. Moving Gears Functionality

Once powered by batteries, the 8 decorative gears on the clock face will rotate simultaneously in both clockwise and anti-clockwise directions. These gears produce softly toned, sifting, and infrequent light whistling sounds as they move, contributing to the clock's unique aesthetic.

2. Timekeeping

The clock features a precise quartz movement for accurate timekeeping. The metal clock hands operate independently from the moving gears, allowing for precise time adjustment.

Maintenance

1. Cleaning

To clean the clock, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish or the moving parts. The clock is designed for indoor use only.

2. Battery Replacement

Replace batteries as needed. If the gears stop moving or the clock hands become inaccurate, it is likely time to replace the batteries. Always use fresh AA batteries and ensure correct polarity during installation.

Troubleshooting

• Clock not keeping accurate time or not moving: Check the battery in the smaller compartment for the clock hands. Ensure it is correctly inserted and has sufficient power.
• Gears not moving: Check the two batteries in the larger compartment for the moving gears. Ensure they are correctly inserted and have sufficient power.
• Unusual noise from gears: The gears are designed to make soft, infrequent whistling sounds. If the noise becomes excessive or grinding, ensure the clock is mounted securely and that no foreign objects are obstructing the gears.
