When dialing a combination, if you passed the number on which you intended to stop, you cannot reverse the dial to correct. The opening procedure must be repeated from the beginning.
DO NOT force the dial to turn. This may cause damage to the lock.
A. OPEN LOCK WITH A SET COMBINATION: 10-20-30
Dial the set combination using the OPENING Index. Figure 1.
4 x Turn the dial LEFT (CCW) passing the first number in the combination (10)
three times. Then stop exactly on the number “10” the fourth time.
3x Turn the dial RIGHT (CW) passing the next number in the combination (20)
two times. Then stop exactly on the number “20” the third time.
2x Turn the dial LEFT (CCW) passing the last number in the combination (30)
one time. Then stop exactly on the number “30” the second time.
Turn the dial to the RIGHT (CW) until it stops and the bolt retracts.
B. CLOSE LOCK
When locking the safe, always turn the safe handle to the locked position (bolts extended) before turning the lock dial four complete rotations to the LEFT (CCW) to relock. If you notice any resistance, DO NOT force the dial to turn. This may cause damage to the lock.
