Answer in mechanical clocks (not battery run) with weights or with springs driving the clock, moving the round swinging pendulum disk UP by tightening the nut under the bottom of the disk WILL SPEED THE CLOCK UP. Mark the rod above the disk to be sure it is moving up when you make your adjustments- and write down what you did in a log so you don't forget what you did the time before.
