A grandfather clock typically needs to be wound once a week to keep it running accurately.
The most likely explanation is that you need to wind it up. Mechanical clocks, including grandfather clocks, need to be wound every so often. There should be some way to wind up a spring, which you'll see if you open up the clock.
To make a grandfather clock work properly, you should ensure it is on a level surface, wind it regularly according to the manufacturer's instructions, and have it professionally serviced every few years to keep it in good working condition.
"wound the clock" is past tense.
The verb form for "wind" is "to twist or turn in a spiral or coil." For example, "I need to wind the clock to make it work."
One of the weights is for the hands to rotate and the other is for the chiming bells. they do different tasks. When I wind mine up after it has 'run out' it will often chime straight away but it will never tick till the pendulum is activated.
The wind up device should be behind the face of the clock.

If it's a cable driven, use a crank and place it in the keyhole and turn it. If it's chain driven, same way you'd wind a cuckoo clock, pull the end with the ring to raise the weight to the base of the clock.

move the hands backwards or fowards. If you have the little hand on the hour and the big hand on the 3, 6, 9, or 12, it will play Westminster chimes and then strike the number of hours.
A gravity-powered clock, such as a grandfather clock or a torsion pendulum clock, converts gravitational energy to elastic energy using a weight-driven mechanism. The weight slowly descends due to gravity, causing the clock's spring or pendulum to wind up and store potential energy as tension in the spring or material of the pendulum.
To wind the clock in the Deltora Quest game, navigate to the clock in the game's interface and click on it. This action will prompt you to wind the clock manually by using your mouse to rotate the clock's hands in a clockwise direction until the clock is fully wound.
