Question
The question is how to oil/lubricate my Sigh Grandfather clock.... Diassembly instruction, lubrication points, type of oil, how often is this needed, etc.  

---------------[ prev question ]---------------
I have a Sligh Grandfather clock, that I want to lubricate.  Model #0831-1-NW, Reg #051-0004-01, Movement #500-0029, Dial #538-0086, Pendulum #560-0018

I'm sorry, but I don't understand the question.

Answer
I cannot teach you to be a clock repair man by email - sorry.

I do not recommend you oil your clock- not helpful to the clock and for a pro only

the numbers are proprietary to Sligh and mean nothing to a clock repair person
