My father died and left me with a mystery on my hands. He left me the three numbers that supposedly unlock his old Yale Floor Safe. The safe stands about 5 feet tall, has double doors and a wheel with marks for 0-99.
My father left us only with the following information:
--The three numbers that open the safe are XX, XX, & XX then a return to 0.
He did not specify the order. I have tried all 6 variations of the combo but can't seem to get it open.
I have a few questions:
1) How do I properly "prepare" the wheel before trying a combination? Do I just set it to zero?2) Do I dial the first number in clockwise or counter-clockwise?
3) Do I stop on the first number after the 2cnd or 3rd pass? How about the 2cnd and 3rd numbers and then 0?4) I'm assuming that if there are 3 numbers in the combo that there are only 6 possible combinations....am I missing something?
In essence, I was thinking it acted like a regular padlock where you stop on the first number after the second pass, the second number after the first, and the 3rd the first time you reach it.
Any help is much appreciated.
