O-3 Resetting and Recovery of Current Combination
To reset the code gears (a), each one of the 5 "L" shaped
legs (b) of the unlocking slide (c) must engage snugly
with the corresponding code gear pocket (d) next to it.

Note: Sometimes two different gear pockets are away from alignment by
exactly the same distance – this indicates that the current combination uses
two different number buttons (example, 2 and 4) depressed at the same
time as part of the combination.
Using a small flat blade screw driver or your thumbnail, depress the key
stem which corresponds to the gear pocket which has been rotated the
farthest away (out of alignment) from the "L" shaped leg. When
depressed, the key stem(s) should stay down and the corresponding
gear pocket(s) should move closer to its corresponding "L" leg, closer to
alignment. Record the key stem number. This is the first number of your
combination.
Note: If two gear pockets are at the same distance, depress
both of these corresponding key stems at the same time.
Continue by pressing the key stem that corresponds to the gear pocket
that was the next furthest away (do not include gear pockets that have
already been rotated). Record each key stem number that is depressed.
Continue this procedure until all five gear pockets are aligned with their
corresponding "L" shaped legs on the unlocking slide. The combination
is the recorded numbers, in the order recorded.
Note: If you depress the wrong key stem by mistake, rotate the reset cam
back toward you, (toward the key stems and release). This resets the code
gears and you must repeat the above procedure, O-3.
Position the chamber in one hand, as
shown. Hold chamber by the top screw tab
(e) and bottom screw tab (f).

Rotate the reset cam (g) back toward you
with your finger, towards the key stems (h) as far as it will
go and then release. Now look at the code gears (a) and
the unlocking slide (c). Note that some or all 5 of the code
gear pockets (d) are rotated away from the "L" shaped
legs (b) as if out of alignment. Typically each code gear
pocket will be at a slightly different distance compared to
the other.
