Resetting the Code / Combination
From a Lost Code
Important: There is no procedure for finding an unknown
combination from the front of the lock. A lost combination must be
cleared by removing the combination chamber from the lock
housing, then a new combination can be set.
1. Remove the back plate from the front lock housing by removing
the six back plate screws.
2. Lift the chamber linkage (A) off of the control shaft (B) by
prying up with a small flat blade screwdriver (see figure 1).
3. Remove the shaft bushing (C).
4. Remove the combination chamber (D) by removing the two
Phillips head screws (E) at each end of the combination chamber.
5. Remove the chamber cover (A) marked Ilco Unican (see figure
2) by gently tapping the lip of the chamber cover at the control
shaft end of the chamber (A) (see figure 3) with a screwdriver to
detach it from the staked joints (B).
6. Lay the chamber on its side as shown in figure 4.
7. With tweezers, or other tool, slide the "e" ring (B) off the
unlocking slide stud (A) (see figure 4), then gently lift the end of
the unlocking slide (C) over the unlocking slide stud (A).
Note: The unlocking slide (C) is under spring tension and will be
easier to lift if pushed to the left to ease tension. Swing the
unlocking slide (C) sufficiently to clear the gears (D), no further
than shown in figure 5.
8. Depress the lockout slide (E). The gears (D) are now free to
rotate (see figure 6).
9. Turn each gear (D) so that the gear pockets (F) are aligned as
in figure 6.
