If there is an identifiable maker of your clock, I would recommend you attempt to locate instructions pertinent to it. Perhaps there is additional help in a forum.

Try to find the answer in the manual https://www.premierclocks.com/blogs/clock-blog/grandfather-clock-owners-setup-instruction-manual

The next time it chimes multiple times turn the hour hand clockwise until it is pointing at the number of times it gonged. Next take off the dial nut off (make sure to put it in a plastic bag because they can be hard to replace) and turn the minute hand until it chimes signaling 15 minutes after. Now put the minute hand back on pointing to 3 o'clock and replace your dial nut and you are all set.
