If your wall clock is running but the pendulum is not swinging, it may be due to a few potential issues with the pendulum mechanism. Here are some steps you can take to repair the pendulum mechanism:

1. Check the suspension spring: The suspension spring is a thin strip of metal that hangs down from the top of the clock and holds the pendulum in place. Check to see if the suspension spring is properly attached to the clock and if it is straight. If it is bent or damaged, it may need to be replaced.
2. Check the pendulum leader: The pendulum leader is the part of the clock that connects the pendulum to the clock's movement. Make sure that the pendulum leader is properly attached to the clock and that it is not bent or damaged.
3. Check the escapement: The escapement is the part of the clock that controls the swing of the pendulum. Make sure that the escapement is properly lubricated and that it is not damaged or jammed. If it is damaged or worn, it may need to be replaced.
4. Check the beat setting: The beat setting is the adjustment that ensures that the pendulum swings evenly. Make sure that the beat setting is properly adjusted by moving the pendulum to the left or right until it swings evenly.
5. Check the weights: If your clock has weights, make sure that they are properly attached and that they are not obstructed or damaged.

If you've tried these steps and the pendulum still isn't swinging, it may be best to contact a professional clock repair technician for further assistance. They will have the expertise and tools needed to properly diagnose and repair any issues with your clock's pendulum mechanism.

It is a handsome longcase clock and rather elaborate - it would be disappointing to discover the weights and pendulum are merely decorative.

I have only encountered one similar clock and it had one battery to keep the pendulum swinging and another to power the clock. The battery had to be fairly fresh or the pendulum stopped swinging. The clock also had to be level or the pendulum stopped.

If you took the picture when the pendulum was stationary, the clock appears not to be standing vertically. It is important they stand vertically in both planes to the nth degree.
There is also a fable about a clock never being happy standing next to or hanging on an exterior wall, sometimes not such a fable...

I don't think the pendulum is the problem. I suggest you should level the clock (considering the shape of the case a plumbline would be best), fit a new battery and give the pendulum a swing - if it doesn't keep swinging, there is probably a fault with the motor.

I can tell by the sellers of this clock that they are made in China. Due to that, finding parts would be difficult.

When was the last time it was serviced? The movement probably needs a good cleaning and/or oiling.

If Hand Wind---Ajust screw device on swing arm clockwise

without seeing the clock .....are you sure it isn't something as simple as the hands ( arms) detaching from the centre spindle which continues to turn but without the hands. Alternatively have the hands become stuck on something on the clock face or become intertwined themselves ? Very simplistic but all I have to offer...

I wish I knew the name of the parts but here we go. On the swinging pendulum on your clock there should be a sliding weight on the bar. This will have a set screw or a thumb screw that you can loosen and slide the weight up and down to change the pace of the pendulum. Down is slower and up is faster.

Try removing the batteries. Set clock to 5:45. Reinsert the batteries, and set to 6:00. it may take an hour for the clock to sync., but it should do the trick. The only thing I can think of for the magnet would be that it may have fallen out of the pendulum swinger where your pendulum hangs. Hope this helps. Good Luck.

Clock may either need to be decked out from the wall at the top, or pushed all the way up against the wall. These clocks have inexpensive quartz movements that aren't of the highest quality. If the clock is more than a few years old, it may be that the electromagnet that impulses the pendulum back and forth has just expired. You might try Clockit.com, or maybe Timesavers.com to find a replacement movement. Hope this helps, Good Luck

Most grandfather/grandmother clocks have an adjustable screw on the weight to slightly extend it or shorten it to satisfy the equation of pendulum swing. the shorter the swing (arc distance) the faster the clock, the longer the swing the longer the time. Check to see if you can adjust the weight up or down on the hanger.
