Turn the minute hand forward to the next hour. When striking stops, push up (or pull down on some clocks) the little wire hanging beneath the dial and let the clock strike. Each time you push (or pull) the wire, the clocks will strike the next hour. Repeat until the correct hour is struck.
How do you fix a clock that chimes the wrong hour?
Count the chimes and gently move the hour hand into the correct position. For example, if the clock chimes three times, move the hour hand to the three.
