3. Now rotate the SpinDial to the right until it comes to a stop (within one
revolution).
When the SpinDial comes to a stop the lock is open.
4. Turn your safe handle.
Since all combination numbers are set to “50”, we did not need to dial
the other numbers in the combination, since they were already aligned
correctly allowing the lock to open.
Note:
If the lock does not open on 50, try dialing the combination again but
this time to 49 or 51.
The lock will open on 49 or 51, because the DialRing may not be in perfect
vertical alignment with the lock body.
It is important to remember the combination on which the lock opened, as
we will use this number in our change combination process.
CHANGING THE MECHANICAL COMBINATION
1. Write down the number that the lock opened on the first time – for this
example we will assume the mechanical combination is 50 (but perhaps
it opened on 49 or 51).
VERY IMPORTANT:
The last number of your new combination cannot
be set between 95 and 99 or between 0 and 20 - this is called the
“Forbidden Zone”. If the last number is set within the Forbidden Zone,
it will cause a condition that prevents the mechanism from operating
correctly.
2. Write down the new combination
you would like to set in the
mechanical combination lock. This
must be 3 numbers, for this example
we will use the combination: 53-23-67.
3. Pull up on the SpinDial Release to
disengage the electronics.
4. Take note of the location of the
Change Index. This is the small red
arrow to the left of the Dialing Index.
5. Rotate the SpinDial 4 times
to the left, stop when you
align the number “50” with
the Change Index.
6. Now on the lock body (on
the back of the safe door)
locate the change key hole.
