How do you set the time?

I have a Seth Thomas clock model # 1500 that I repaired, however, I can't find a way to set the time. Have found the alarm and ring types and the volume button. Do you set the time from the front or back.

Setting the time
by: Bill

On most battery operated clocks there is a small wheel on the rear of the movement itself that you spin with a finger to turn the hands - usually just above the battery.

If your clock has a door to give access to the hands themselves, you can just turn the minute hand until you reach the correct time.

I hope this helps - I can't be sure what model clock you have by the number. There are just too many models out there.
