What happens if I forget my combination?
If you forget your combination and did not record it, you will need to reset the lock following the procedure, which requires knowing the current combination to set a new one. If you cannot open it, you may need to contact the manufacturer or consider replacing the lock.
Troubleshooting
Lock will not open with the correct combination.
Ensure the combination is entered precisely. Check that the shackle was fully pressed down when setting the new code. If the reset was done incorrectly, you may need to cycle through combinations or follow the reset procedure again carefully.
Dials are stiff or difficult to turn.
Ensure the shackle is fully open. Clean any debris from around the dials. Try applying a small amount of dry graphite lubricant to the mechanism.
Unable to reset the combination.
Double-check that you are following the reset instructions precisely, especially the step of fully pressing the shackle down *before* turning the dials and then turning the shackle 90° counter-clockwise to the code line while it's still depressed. Ensure you are not releasing the shackle prematurely.
Lock mechanism feels loose.
This is normal for combination locks. Ensure the correct combination is entered and the shackle is fully depressed before attempting to turn the dials to open.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup & Resetting the Combination:
- Locate the original combination (usually 0-0-0-0) and open the lock by pulling the shackle.
- To set a new combination, locate the reset mechanism (often a small pin or button on the lock body, accessible when the shackle is open).
- Crucially, fully press the shackle down to its lowest point. *Do not release it until you have completed the following step.*
- Turn the dials to your desired 4-digit code.
- Important: While keeping the shackle fully depressed, turn it 90° counter-clockwise to the 'code line' marking and then release.
- Pull the shackle up, then press it down again fully. Turn the dials away from your new combination. If the lock opens, your new code is set. If not, repeat the process, ensuring the shackle is fully pressed and held during the entire reset sequence.
Compatibility:
This padlock is designed to fit most standard hasps and lockers. Ensure the shackle diameter and width are suitable for your intended locking point.
Care:
- Clean the lock periodically with a dry cloth.
- Avoid exposing the lock to harsh chemicals.
- If used outdoors, periodically check for corrosion and ensure the dials move freely. A light application of graphite lubricant can help maintain smooth operation.
