Table 11.

Assembly instructions for the escapement sub-assembly. Component numbering per Tables 23.

Step Instruction
1 Insert the pinion shaft (19) into the escapement support plate (4) as far as possible. Push the escape wheel (5) onto the shaft so that the wheel sits against the plate. Ensure the wheel is attached in the orientation shown. Use Loctite to secure the wheel to the shaft.
2 Position the pallet (6) 1  mm from the end of the pallet shaft (20), and secure with Loctite. Insert the pallet shaft into the escapement support plate in the orientation shown.
3 Push the escapement support plate and the actuator support plate (7) together.
4 Attach the pallet lever arm (8) to the pallet shaft so the lever sits 1  mm from the actuator support plate. Secure the connection with Loctite.
