Vision Visor

Clock Cleaning Kit includes This magnifier can be worn over glasses. This fits over the head and will be the most convenient magnification for inspecting important components of the clock movement and parts. This quality tool is made here in USA and is a must for this type of work. This flips up over the head when there is an interruption in your work and has 2 1/2 magnification power.

Oiler with Oil

The oiler is full of oil and are the size of a fat pen. Apply a small amount of oil to anything that has friction after cleaning off the old oil. This is enough clock oil to do many clock movements.

Clock Gear / Hand Puller

Use this tool to pull gears or hands off of clocks in a straight and safe fashion. With 400 day clocks in particular, the hour hand sometimes is difficult to get off. Doing it by hand could increase the hour hand holes diameter and the hand will not fit back on correctly because it would be touching the dial. Using this simple tool prevents this from happening.

Clock Level

Use the level to be sure the clock stays in beat from one place to another. Learn to set the clock in beat by the directions in the E-book, making sure the clock is level when it is being done. Then keep a level with the clock and where ever the clock goes, as long as it’s level, it will be in beat.

By being in beat, it means to have an even tick-tock-tick-tock rather than ticktock—ticktock—ticktock. Often many repairs ONLY need to be set in beat to work – however we usually suggest a cleaning anyhow.

Mainspring Let Down

The let down releases the power in a wound up mainspring. Key goes into the chuck and the chuck goes into the handle, this way the power of the spring can be let down with ease. It does the same job as the let down with all the chucks.

If someone were to take a spring driven clock apart without letting down the mainsprings, bad things may happen. The movement would get ruined and possible hand injury. You must select “spring driven kit” below in order to add the let down tool to the kit.
