Your lock may be set on a factory shipping combination, or it may be set on a true, three number combination. To open a lock set on a factory shipping combination of 50, turn the dial LEFT until ‘‘50’’ aligns with the OPENING INDEX (12 o’clock position on the dial ring) the fourth 4th time.You must dial the combination precisely without backing up. I bought this Meilink safe at auction. Sadly, the safe is locked and the combination is not available. The VERY FIRST thing you do is call the manufacturer and ask them if they have a default combination when they ship the safe. Most safes with combinations that can be changed ship with the factory combination,.

Excerpt:
Wyatt, 51, is a man with time on his hands. He defines himself as a
marginally employed computer repairman, a tinkerer in all things
mechanical and an unrepentant coffee-shop slacker. He learned
everything he knows about safecracking from a 34-page PDF document he
found while doing a Google search on 'safecracking for the computer
scientist.'
[...]
Rodgers recently bought a mid-century home in the Upper Castro
neighborhood, which came complete with a 1-ton antique safe that
prevented him from parking his car in the garage. He was offering 25
percent of the unknown contents to any person who could open the
safe. The only catch was that the safecracker had to haul away the
cracked safe when the job was done.
[...]
At 10:22 a.m., Wyatt cried out, 'I got it!' Rodgers came running over
just as the several-hundred-pound door fell off the safe - a
contractor had removed the hinges in a previously failed attempt to
get in.
Wyatt's reward was indeed 25 percent of the air in the safe. Apart
from that, nothing was inside.
Still, Wyatt had a giant grin on his face as he held the inner
workings of a lock like a shiny piece of gold. His curiosity had been
quenched.
