How I can fix my Citizen Poppo battery operated Wall Clock?

The clock's movement is inaccurate:
1. it does not give ourcorrect time and frequently stops
2. When I take out Pendulum, it runs fast and shows 100% more than the accurate for slow and down time
3. When I put the pendulum back in the hook, it runs 2-3 hours or completely stops even after adjusting the pendulum UP for slow and DOWN for fast. I have spent several hours to fix it with no success,
4. Its Cuckoo does not make sound by hour or half hour, its dead in other words
5. Its Japan Made
6. Citizen agency is 6 hours away from my home town, so its cumbersome for me to take it to the agency
Please help me fix it myself

The question: How I can fix my Citizen Poppo battery operated Wall Clock?
Your answer:Thanks Mr. John for your answer to my question.
Per your expert advise, I have used sewing machine oil and used 2 drops on the plastic movement gear, yes the clock started moving but stopped after 4 hours.

The Kucco beeps only if I move reverse the minute hand but it does not at all beep on hourly or half hourly basis, it is dead.

By the way iis it possible for you to make a video and post it on Youtube please.

Please advise me a little bit more Mr.John
Thanks a lot

HELLO battery clocks have plastic gears in movement with age they dry and wear, buy lighter fluid and flood the mechanism with it, check the clock hands are not touching within the orbit, also check all battery conections for dirt corrosion if all ok clock should work by the way removing the pendule will make the clock faster enyway as it controls the speed of time ie hands.
