First, make sure both winders are being fully wound every 7 days.

To regulate the clock: Use the lever with the + and - symbols on the upper right side of the dial. Move it to + tospeed it up, and towards - to slow it down. make only a very small adjustment each time, and then set the clock andtest it for several days.

8) The ship's bell code

Ship's bell strike is based on 'watches' onboard ship of 4 hours each. A new watch starts at noon, 4 p.m.,8 p.m., midnight, 4 a.m. and 8 a.m. The end of a 'watch' and start of a new watch is marked by the bellbeing struck 8 times. A half hour later, the bell is struck once, with an additional strike each half hour until theend of the watch. Then the cycle starts again. The bells are struck in pairs, that is, the first two bells are struckclose together followed by a pause, then the next two, etc. The table below shows the pattern of the bells.
