Balance Endshake
The balance bridge screw on the 9
o'clock side serves to adjust the bal-
ance
endshake. Tightening this
screw
will
reduce the balance end-
shake.
Use
caution while adjusting
the endshake to avoid
damage
to
the points of the balance staff.
Inspect
the hairspring to
be
certain
that
it
is
properly adjusted.
As
shown, the hairspring should be
in
light permanent contact with the
inside
edge
of the regulator slot.
The hairspring
is
held
in
this posi-
tion by a
tab
extending from the
regulator.
When replacing the dial assembly,
pre-position the hands to
12:00
be-
fore inserting the tabs on the dial
into the plate. Bend tabs to secure
dial.
Replace the sweep second hand by
driving
it
just
below the
end
of the
sweep second staff as shown
in
the
diagram.
Be
certain the sweep hand
is
set below the chamfer on the top
of the staff.
