An hour meter was on the Case when we got it. Not hooked up. But was at one time, I’d say. Aftermarket thing some one had installed. Showed 331 hours. So I put power to it and didn’t work. Kinda figured it wouldn’t. So being the way I am, let’s take it apart and see if we can fix it. Got it apart. Neat how it works. The coil has a one side of a set of points. The other part of the points is on a lever that sets the clock in motion. When the points touch, it sends power to the coil. It quickly pulls in and throws the other half of the points on the lever ahead and sets the clock in motion. This happens till the point on the lever comes back to the other point on the coil. Makes connection, powers the coil and throws the lever. This keeps happening while power is hooked up. Any way. Had to clean the points, so a connection could be made and oiled up the moving parts. It now works. I will reset to zero and put in in the Case and hook it up to the run setting on the key switch. So the number increments from 0 to 9 are 6 minutes apart for each one, 60 minutes. So I tested the time between each increment, 0 to 1, 1 to 2. And they are 6 minutes apart.
