Question
My cuckoo clock cuckoos at 10 past the hour and 10 past the half hour.  How can I get it to cuckoo at the proper time?
Thank you!

Answer
You need to adjust the position of the minute hand.  This can be a bit tricky, so be carefull.  To do thios task you will need to loosen the hand nut, move it to its correct place in time then retighten the hand nut.  Where the trick part comes in is that when you loosen the hand nut it becomes friction free.  If you run into this problem give me a holler and I will try to walk you trough the proceedure.  Be sure add your delima to this current inquirey as a comment.  This will provide continuity.  Regards WJP.
