Mechanical alarm clocks require maintenance. If not used carefully, it is likely that the alarm clock will be damaged shortly after use. After all, mechanical alarm clocks are still quite precise. Maintenance of mechanical alarm clocks should pay attention to:

1. Mechanical alarm clocks need to be wound regularly, preferably at a fixed time every day, with one full winding. The speed of the winding watch should be appropriate and not too tight. Too tight, the spring is easily stuck by the oil in the spring box. When the spring is relaxed, it is easy to break due to excessive elasticity.

2. Do not turn on the mechanical alarm clock casually, on the one hand to prevent damage, and on the other hand to prevent dust from falling in; If it needs to be disassembled due to damage, non professionals suggest sending it to a watch shop for repair.

3. Do not place the mechanical alarm clock on the radio to avoid being magnetized by the speaker's magnet and affecting the timing. Mechanical alarms should not be placed together with camphor, as camphor is highly volatile and can cause the internal oil of the mechanical alarm to solidify, lose its lubricating effect, and damage the accuracy of the clock.

4. Avoid rubbing against sharp and sharp substances, high pressure, high heat, and corrosion from chemical reagents to prevent scratching or damage. Do not use alcohol to wipe, to prevent the glass from breaking due to chemical reactions with alcohol.

5. If there are slight scratches, apply toothpaste to a velvet cloth and rub back and forth on the alarm clock to eliminate the scratches.
