Page 6: Important Information
IMPORTANT INFORMATION Please, be very careful to never touch the movement of Grant either on the front, on the sides or on the back of the movement, except for the time adjustment and winding tips that can be touched with the winding key. -
Page 7: Care And Maintenance
It is recommended not to hold Grant only by one “arm”, or by the top parts, but from underneath, with gloves – and with the thumb on the shield to hold it in place and ensure that it does not open accidentally while handling. -
Page 8: A Kinetic Sculpture
Release the arm for the intermediate position or continue to lift it until the flat position. In any case, when transform- ing Grant, never let go of the shield and allow it to drop : this could damage the balance wheel. -
Page 10: The Winding And Time-Setting Key
When putting it back into place, be careful to not place it vertically: it could hit the movement when you move Grant since the key is not locked into place. -
Page 11: Winding The Movement
WINDING THE MOVEMENT Winding the movement can only be done when Grant is in the fully horizontal position. After placing Grant in the horizontal position, turn him over very carefully and insert the key in Point A. Wind the movement with anti-clockwise rotations. -
Page 12: Reading The Time
READING THE TIME The hours and minutes are indicated by two hands on the shield: In this example it is 02:50 In this example it is 08:25... -
Page 13: Setting The Time
SETTING THE TIME Place Grant in the fully upright position. Insert the key in point B on the diagram and turn the key anti-clockwise in order to set the time. -
Page 14: The Three Caterpillar Tracks
THE THREE CATERPILLAR TRACKS Do not push too hard or too fast on the top or back of Grant to move him forward or backward. A sharp turn could force the rear caterpillar tracks off the rollers. If this happens, gently push Grant forward in a straight line and the caterpillar tracks should automatically return to their normal position on the rollers. -
Page 15: Cleaning The Caterpillar Tracks
To put it back on, stretch the caterpillar track between the two biggest rollers to place it approximately, and gently push Grant forward in a straight line; the caterpillar track should automatically return to its normal position on the rollers. Be aware that you can’t remove the front caterpillar track. - Page 16 L’Epée 1839 Manufacture Horlogère Rue St-Maurice 1 - P.O.
