Starting the pendulum requires no special attention. However, when adjusting the escapement, the drive weight will be removed, which causes the tooth engaged with a pallet to disengage, so before restoring the weight, you must ensure a tooth is engaged with a pallet again, otherwise a runaway will occur.
