I am just starting out. One of my maintenance requirements is the care of our county Tower Clock. When I started this job a year ago no one in the maintenance crew even knew how to set the time on its four faces together. I have been struggling along but know I need to educate myself.
I see its make is a E. Howard but how do I find the rest of the details Model etc...so that i can seek reference materials.
Based on the bell motor, type of wiring, etc it was electrified as an update somewhere in the 1950's
The bell is 1884.
I have mainly just been keeping it clean and observing its function until 2 days ago when the main movement motor failed. I have the exact same replacement and I will attempt to install tomorrow. But I fear more issues are to be found.
I feel like a goat looking at a wrist watch. Pictures are rough I know but I am trying to clean it up and give it the home it deserves. Please help me find my way. Dropbox - 100NIKON
