Hello Advicenatots: I have a Howard Miller Grandfather Clock that is 15 years old. Model # 610-742 Serial # F0002470358. It keeps good time. But does not strike the hour on the hour. Also, the quarter - half - and three quarter hour chimes are way out of tune. sounds very bad. I don't hear and high note chimes. Only low note chimes. What can I do? Thanks, Dave
Its likely a simple adjustment for an expert but if we try it ourselves, we might make it worse. I say that because at first, the clock seller/repair guy told us what to do, (our clock was at home when we stopped by) and we followed instructions but it sounded worse when it chimed. So we brought the clock to him and he fixed the chimes.
Good Luck. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
