Impostazione: impostazione della combinazione

The ABUS 145/40 C padlock comes with a factory preset combination, usually 0-0-0 or a similar default. Follow these steps to set your personal combination:

2. Rotate the shackle 90 degrees (or 180 degrees, depending on the model) from its locked position.
3. Press the shackle down firmly into the lock body. While holding it down, set your desired new combination by turning the dials. Choose a memorable but secure combination.
4. Once your new combination is set, release the shackle and return it to its original locked position.
5. Scramble the dials to lock the padlock. Test your new combination to ensure it opens the lock correctly before securing any valuables.

Manutenzione

To ensure the longevity and smooth operation of your ABUS 145/40 C padlock:

• Pulizia: Wipe the lock body and shackle with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Lubrificazione: Periodically apply a small amount of graphite powder or a silicone-based lubricant to the shackle mechanism and dials. This helps maintain smooth movement and prevents corrosion, especially in humid environments.
• Magazzinaggio: Quando non lo si utilizza, conservare il lucchetto in un luogo asciutto per evitare l'accumulo di umidità.

Risoluzione dei problemi

• Il lucchetto non si apre:
  • Ensure the correct combination is entered and each number is perfectly aligned with the indicator.
  • Esercitare una leggera pressione sulla maniglia mentre si inserisce la combinazione, quindi rilasciarla.
  • If the dials are stiff, apply lubricant as described in the Maintenance section.
• Dials are difficult to turn:
  • This can be caused by dirt or lack of lubrication. Clean the dials and apply a suitable lubricant.
  • Ensure the padlock is not under tension when attempting to turn the dials.
