Wall Sticker Clock Installation from DUBLEZ

Procedure:

  1. Measure the wall where you will be mounting the adhesive clock. The distance of the numbers or adhesive parts from the clock mechanism can be arbitrary, but we recommend using the dimensions on the wall where you originally ordered the clock. It is important to measure the center of the clock, as everything else will be based on that.
  2. The clock mechanism is already pre-mounted in a steel circular casing. On the back of the mechanism, there is also a hook for easy hanging on the wall.
  3. After successfully measuring the spot where we want to place the clock, we recommend placing a nail in the exact center (the exact center is the imaginary top part of the steel casing where the hook is located) and placing the clock mechanism with the casing on it.
  4. Included in the package is a piece of paper with a circle and 12 lines within it (a circular pie divided into 12 parts). There is a black dot in the center of the circle. Make a hole in the black dot. Slide this paper through the metal center of the clock until it stops, so that the paper touches the steel circular casing containing the clock mechanism. Once the paper is successfully placed on the casing, rotate it so that the lines in the circle are aligned like numbers on a clock.
  5. Also included in the package is a paper tape measure. Now, it is necessary to think about the distance of the adhesive parts from the center of the mechanism. For instance, if the dimension of the clock after being stuck on the wall is 150 cm, then the distance from the center will be half of this dimension (150 / 2 = 75 cm). Once we have this number thought out, we take the tape measure in our hands. Place its end (corner) at the center of the mechanism. When the longer side of the tape (1 meter long) overlaps with the line on the paper circle, we have the correct position and mark a dot on the wall at the distance from the center of the clock mechanism that we previously determined. In this way, we make 12 dots on the wall. As a result, all the dots will be at the same distance from the center.
  6. We now have 12 dots on the wall and the mechanism mounted on the wall (still without hands). Prepare all the adhesive parts of the clock, turn them to the other (back) side and remove the green protective film so that they can be stuck to the wall.
  7. Now start sticking the individual parts. Stick the corresponding part to each dot, centering the part approximately in the middle of the dot. Stick it very carefully, do not press too hard against the wall, to check from a distance at the end all the parts, how they are stuck on the wall and if it is necessary to slightly move some. Some clock numbers consist of two digits, such as 10, 11, 12. For these numbers, you will receive a template in the package. With this template, when you place it against the wall you can precisely stick the numbers to the wall with exact gaps between the digits.
  8. After we have stuck all the parts, we look from a sufficient distance to check if all the parts are stuck in the correct places and if they are stuck straight. If there was a mistake, carefully peel off the part and stick it back. If we are 100% sure of the correctness of the sticking, press all the parts firmly against the wall so that the adhesive foam properly adheres to the wall.

Installation of clock hands, battery into the mechanism, and setting the time:

  1. From the front side, where part of the mechanism protrudes from the casing, unscrew the small, top, brass screw located on the mechanism.
  2. Unpack the metal / wooden hands from the bag. The bag contains two hands. One is the hour hand (shorter) and the other is the minute hand (longer). The hour hand has a larger hole with a brass wheel inside it. The minute hand has a smaller hole without a brass wheel.
  3. On the hands there may be protective film. If it is present, carefully remove it from the hands.
    1. If you have black hands, the film is transparent.
    2. If you have silver hands, the film is blue or does not have a film.
    3. If you have metal gold or wooden hands, there is no film on the hands.
  4. Mounting the hands onto the mechanism:
    1. First, we will mount the hour hand. Insert the hand into the mechanism and gently push it in so that it holds firmly. Our tip: press around the perimeters, "semicircles," do not press the ends of the hands to avoid bending them.
    2. Next, insert the minute hand. This hand fits precisely into the groove on the mechanism.
    3. If we have successfully mounted both hands, then screw the brass screw back on top of the mechanism.
  5. Checking the hands: After mounting the hands, it is necessary to look at the clock from the side to see if the hands are crossing each other. If they happen to cross, gently bend the minute hand slightly (it is best to slightly bend it at the mechanism, not at the end of the hand).
  6. Choosing the correct battery for the clock: The clock mechanism is powered by a standard AA battery. To ensure that the clock functions properly and displays the correct time, it is very important to use the right type of battery. As a manufacturer we recommend using high-quality alkaline batteries from reputable manufacturers. We do not recommend using rechargeable batteries, old batteries, used batteries, or zinc-chloride batteries. The voltage of the battery should be within the range of 1.3 - 1.7 V. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in the clock not functioning properly.
  7. Installing the battery in the clock: Insert an AA battery into the clock mechanism. The direction of insertion (plus, minus) is shown on the mechanism.
  8. Setting the time: First, align the hands to show 12:00. Then, on the back of the mechanism, there is a black wheel, turning which you can set the correct time.
  9. If everything went smoothly, the mechanism in the steel casing can be re-hung on the wall using the steel hook, for example on a nail.
