SOURCE: Lost combination Safe Guard Digital Safe

I used to work for a safe company.
The solution to your problem is not nice.
You need to find someone with a 9 inch grinder and a metal cutting blade.
Don't bother to try to cut the door off it is the strongest part.
If possible cut the back off. If not possible to get to the back start with the hinges if you know where they are, some hinges are concealed and are not where they appear to be.
This solution is messy dirty noisy and dangerous, that's what safes do to deter criminals.
If safe companies kept generic codes to open any kind of safe they wouldn't be,,,,,,,,,,,,,safe.

SOURCE: reset combination lock

The cable lock should come with a small pronged key used to change the combo, if you lost the key you can try getting a replacement from HP.If not you will need to cut the cable and buy a new one.

How do I can unlock dial lock

The master dial lock is the world's best selling combination padlock.The lock uses three digit combination of 40 numbers.allowing for 15,00 possible variations
.Follow these step to unlock dial lock. 25284217-gdc3ufgmlwaqnv2deqjxyac2-5-0.jpg With the Combination Step 1 Turn the lock until the numbers read right-side-up. Roll the left-most dial until the first number of your combination lines up with the scored hash mark just to the left of the dial.
With the Combination Step 2 Roll the middle dial until the appropriate number lines up with the number to its left. Do the same for the right-most number. Your three-digit combination should now show, left to right, lined up with the scored hash marks.
With the Combination Step 3 Pull the body of the lock away from the U-shaped metal ring without turning any of the dials. The lock will click open to expose a hook. The hook spins 360 degrees so that it can be placed onto, and taken off, luggage.
Forgotten Combination Step 1 Pull the body of the lock and the U-shaped ring away from each other to put pressure on the mechanism inside the lock. Pull the body of the lock away from its attachment, or, if the lock is not attached, apply pressure on the U-shaped ring away from the body of the lock with your fingers. Keep holding a firm, steady pressure.
Forgotten Combination Step 2 Roll the dial closest to the U-shaped ring slowly, while keeping steady pressure on the mechanism. The dial will get difficult to roll over three consecutive numbers, and one of those numbers will click. You should feel and hear this small click, and that is the first number to your combination.
Forgotten Combination Step 3 Repeat Step 2 with the middle dial, and then the farthest dial. Leave the dial set when you find the click, moving onto the next dial. The combination will reveal itself, letting you pull the U-ring away from the body of the lock.
Resetting Your Combination Step 1 Hold the body of the lock so that the numbers face away from you. Set the combination and release the U-shaped ring.
Resetting Your Combination Step 2 Turn the hook of the U-shaped ring counterclockwise 90 degrees until the notch on the stem of the hook and the hole on the body of the lock line up. Push the stem of the hook down into the body of the lock as far as it will go.
Resetting Your Combination Step 3 Turn the hook another 90 degrees counterclockwise while it is depressed into the body of the lock.
Resetting Your Combination Step 4 Roll the dials until you have your new combination.
Resetting Your Combination Step 5 Turn the hook 90 degrees clockwise and raise the stem out of the body of the lock. Turn it another 90 degrees clockwise and push it back into the locked position. The lock now uses your new combination.

    Forgot my Presto Lock combination!

    You cannot reset the lock unless you know the combination. You would need someone to pick the lock, like a locksmith and then once it's open you can reset the lock with a new combination.

    Have just purchased an 8mm Tioga resettable combination bike lock but stupidly threw the packaging with instructions on how to reset the combination... currently set at 0000.

    I realise this is an old question, but...
    Open the lock with the default combination (0-0-0-0)
    At the insertion point you will see a raised ring to the right of the numbers. Turn this part clockwise (it has an arrow on it). Set the combination you want. Turn the ring back, anticlockwise. All done!

    I dont know how to open the lock its brand new????? They failed to give me instructions when they attached to the bike

    My new lock didn't come with any instuctions. I followed the link above and located the "bike locks" heading. I found that the question:

    - I have a Kryptonite resettable combination lock and can't find the instructions for resetting it. How can I change the combination?

    contained a pdf titled :

    - Resettable Combination Cable
    (red reset buttons inside)

    which is not the cryptoflex 1218 but is compatible anyway.

    dont hurt your fingers trying to depress the nodules as the diagram says though. to my chagrin i discovered that they will turn easily if you just push them around into place.

    here are the instructions:

    To set your own combination
    Your new lock is preset to open at 0-0-0-5 at the factory.
    1. Open the lock by aligning the opening combination
    number to the Guide Points and pull out the Lock
    Post. (Figure 1)
    2. Push down the two Reset Buttons simultaneously
    with thumb and forefinger, and turn counterclockwise
    until it comes to a stop. (Figure 2)
    3.You are now ready to turn the dials to set your
    secret combination, such as a phone number, birthday,
    etc.
    4. After setting your secret combination, turn the
    two Reset Buttons again by Thumb and Forefinger
    clockwise until it comes to a stop and back to its
    original position.
    5. Verify your new combination before using your
    lock. Insert the Lock Post all the way into the Locking
    Port but do not turn the dials. Pull out the Lock Post.
    Your lock is ready to use.
    6.The reset operation is now complete. Repeat
    steps 1-5 anytime you wish to change your secret
    combination.
