Set the strike by locating the trip wires in the back inside of the works or move the minute hand while the clock is chiming, stopping at the correct interval.

Be careful as the pieces can be bent while adjusting. Check the positions of the hammers to make sure they are able to strike the middle of the chime rods

Set the strike of a Westminster Chime by locating the trip wires in the back inside of the works or with some moving the minute hand while the clock is chiming and stopping at the correct interval. All clock are not the same so it might be different for yours.
