Un bon manuel d’utilisation

Les règles imposent au revendeur l'obligation de fournir à l'acheteur, avec des marchandises, le manuel d’utilisation Timex 61. Le manque du manuel d’utilisation ou les informations incorrectes fournies au consommateur sont à la base d'une plainte pour non-conformité du dispositif avec le contrat. Conformément à la loi, l’inclusion du manuel d’utilisation sous une forme autre que le papier est autorisée, ce qui est souvent utilisé récemment, en incluant la forme graphique ou électronique du manuel Timex 61 ou les vidéos d'instruction pour les utilisateurs. La condition est son caractère lisible et compréhensible.

Qu'est ce que le manuel d’utilisation?

Le mot vient du latin "Instructio", à savoir organiser. Ainsi, le manuel d’utilisation Timex 61 décrit les étapes de la procédure. Le but du manuel d’utilisation est d’instruire, de faciliter le démarrage, l'utilisation de l'équipement ou l'exécution des actions spécifiques. Le manuel d’utilisation est une collection d'informations sur l'objet/service, une indice.

Malheureusement, peu d'utilisateurs prennent le temps de lire le manuel d’utilisation, et un bon manuel permet non seulement d’apprendre à connaître un certain nombre de fonctionnalités supplémentaires du dispositif acheté, mais aussi éviter la majorité des défaillances.

Donc, ce qui devrait contenir le manuel parfait?

Tout d'abord, le manuel d’utilisation Timex 61 devrait contenir:
- informations sur les caractéristiques techniques du dispositif Timex 61
- nom du fabricant et année de fabrication Timex 61
- instructions d'utilisation, de réglage et d’entretien de l'équipement Timex 61
- signes de sécurité et attestations confirmant la conformité avec les normes pertinentes

Pourquoi nous ne lisons pas les manuels d’utilisation?

Habituellement, cela est dû au manque de temps et de certitude quant à la fonctionnalité spécifique de l'équipement acheté. Malheureusement, la connexion et le démarrage Timex 61 ne suffisent pas. Le manuel d’utilisation contient un certain nombre de lignes directrices concernant les fonctionnalités spécifiques, la sécurité, les méthodes d'entretien (même les moyens qui doivent être utilisés), les défauts possibles Timex 61 et les moyens de résoudre des problèmes communs lors de l'utilisation. Enfin, le manuel contient les coordonnées du service Timex en l'absence de l'efficacité des solutions proposées. Actuellement, les manuels d’utilisation sous la forme d'animations intéressantes et de vidéos pédagogiques qui sont meilleurs que la brochure, sont très populaires. Ce type de manuel permet à l'utilisateur de voir toute la vidéo d'instruction sans sauter les spécifications et les descriptions techniques compliquées Timex 61, comme c’est le cas pour la version papier.

Pourquoi lire le manuel d’utilisation?

Tout d'abord, il contient la réponse sur la structure, les possibilités du dispositif Timex 61, l'utilisation de divers accessoires et une gamme d'informations pour profiter pleinement de toutes les fonctionnalités et commodités.

Après un achat réussi de l’équipement/dispositif, prenez un moment pour vous familiariser avec toutes les parties du manuel d'utilisation Timex 61. À l'heure actuelle, ils sont soigneusement préparés et traduits pour qu'ils soient non seulement compréhensibles pour les utilisateurs, mais pour qu’ils remplissent leur fonction de base de l'information et d’aide.

    1 A History of the Waterbury Clock Company (1857 – 1942) The Waterbury Clock Company, founde d in March 5, 1857, began as a venture into the lucrative clock market by the am bitious Benedict & Burnham Corporation, heretofore the “B&B Corp.” Being a compa ny specia lizing in the production of brass, and with clock movements being made [...]

    2 Until this point, Waterbury had been offe ring chiefly commonplace c locks. Their fame was truly made, however, when Waterbury, in 1892, began to build watches for the Ingersoll Company, who sold them as dollar wa tch alternatives to the expensive watches of the time. These became known as Inge rsoll W atches, and we re produced by an offshoot of[...]

    3 The Process To Begin – The Take Down The first day of work began on the morning of February 27, 2002; ni nety years after the presentation of the clock to the school by the class of 1912. We [David LaBounty CMC, FBHI and Andrew LaBounty, Apprentice] recei ved permission from Asst. Principal Mr. Carmody to remove the clock’s m ovement, di al, [...]

    4 At the Shop – Cleaning it up The first step in restoring the movement wa s obviously to remove it from both the dial and the metal box that encased it. To achieve th is, the taper pins that held the dial to the box and the screws affixing the movement to the box were all rem oved. In addition, the hands were removed to take the dial off. After [...]

    5 M y Drawin g ( see attachment C ) On Paper – Making a Map Before I could take the movement entirely apart, it had to be drawn so I would be able to put it together again with the gears in their proper places. To do this, I drew circles and numbered them in a hierarchy to display the orde r in which they went, then drew each individual gear to s[...]

    6 Taking it Apart – And Determining Beats per Hour Finally, real work could begin with the gears themselves out side of the movement. To take the movement apart was a sim ple matte r of taking out five screws and pulling the front plate straight upward to avoid bending any pivots or shafts. This done, the gears were exposed and could be removed a[...]

    7 File – The First Ste p Polishing Pivots – The Dreary Part Next, it was time to polish the bearing surfaces of the clock, called the pivots. The pivots are the ends of the gears that turn in the plate, and if th ey’re not polished, the clo ck will be sluggish and possibly stop. This is mostly due to the dirt that will be trapped in the scrat[...]

    8 Major Project – The Escape Wheel “Nut” After the pivot polishing process was com ple te for all eight pivots, I progressed to “bushing” the pivot holes. A bushing is a sm all cylinder of brass with a h ole in the middle designed to replace a worn h ole. To replace a worn hole, one uses a hand reamer (a small handheld tool that when twis[...]

    9 inserted the smaller end of the threads (which I filed down) into the rim of brass that w as the head of the nut and peen ed the end down by hammering it fl at so that it wouldn’t slip when it was screwed in. After the new threads were stuck tight in the rim, I drilled a hole through them, creating a threaded bushing, and eventually sized that [...]

    10 Polishing the Pivot Holes – Everything’s so Shiny! Since most of the hard part was complete d, I was happy to move on to polishing pivot holes, as it meant the pivots would soon be in them and turning again. Unfortunately, the pivot holes take a little while to clean, t hough they go much faster if the bushings are done right. To polish a pi[...]

There are also lift angles on the ends of the pallets (the lift faces) tha t drive the pendulum sufficiently to keep the clock running, and are subject to wear (as are the lock faces). My first goal was to measure the lift angles. To do so, I m [...]

    12 I used the finer adjustment knob nearer to the bottom of the leader to finish the adjustment. After setting the bea t, I set the rate, or the quickness of the tick-tocks. This was done using the nut at the bottom of the pendulum. I used the same timing machine to measure how m any beats the clock made per hour, which I found above to be 3600. I [...]

    13 Conclusion – And Thanks I really enjoyed working on this lovely clock, and I’m honored to be a part of the history begun by the esteemed Class of 1912. Olathe No rth truly has one of the great clocks in existence today, and I trust it will be around fo r another 90 or 100 years. I would like to thank Mrs. Dorland and Mr. Carmody for th eir s[...]

The clock may run for twelve to fourteen days but it is important to avoid having the weight settle on the bottom of the case. Damage to the es cape wheel tee[...]

    15 Rating Rating the clock means adjusting the time keep ing so the clock neither gains nor loses time while it is running. This is done by ra ising or lowering the pendulum bob using the rating nut on the bottom of the pendulum. Stop the pendulum to m ake all adjustments and then gently start the pendulum swinging when done. Minimize the amount of[...]

W ax buildup and dirt will darken the case with years of use and could destroy the original finish. Moving the Clock At some point it may become necessary to relo cate the clock. This m ay be done safely if certain measures are tak[...]

The case must also be leveled side-to-side. Place a bubble level in the bottom of the case and shim one side or the other until the case is leveled. The case must be back against the wall and le[...]
