Not sure it helps, but this was the one I had. It wasn't the hand that was broken on mine, it was one of the teeth.

Hi Chris, Merry Christmas to you also, lets hope next year is better this this one. Ive just bought a Jennings service manual from Neil in Stockport, don't know if you know him, he use to supply Henry Powell with a number of machines over the years. Neil is suffering with poor health at the moment. ...

Hi Paul
That was going to be the next step to get rid of the old grease.
Also on the look out for a good second hand service manual for the Governor before I start to service it.

Always been very happy will my Mills one arm bandits, so decided as Ive just turned 65 :shock: to treat myself to a standard Jennings Governor.

Priced at £3000

Thanks Paul, most helpful. Apart from the brake adjustment screw, what do the other two adjustment nuts actually do?

Hi Tom, thanks for the reply and advice. The nut is ok, I adjusted the screw and nut and moved the spring slightly see picture, I assume this is something to do with the brake. The problem seems to be sorted. Ive never had to adjust anything on the clock before, usually adjustment screws or nuts are...

Today my Bryan's clock developed a fault. Before when the coin was inserted and the key turned to crank the machine, the hands would generally rotate smoothly several times with the ticking noise as it should be.
