I'm not privileged to use the safes section of this site, so maybe somebody can let me in there. I hope I'm not braking the rules by posting this here - let me know if I am.
I have a Locktech SM020 safe which I need to crack.
See it here:

The owners (some friends of mine) use it in their shop and have never known the combination. It's written somewhere, but they can't find it.
They just left the combination dialed in, and used the key to open and lock it. Nobody was allowed to move the dial!
Inevitably, the dial was bumped yesterday, and now they're locked out
I have the key and the safe sitting here beside me and not much more than 'how stuff works' to help me get in.

Can anybody please give me some help?
I'm well aware that safe-cracking is a very precise skill and nobody can expect to master it in an afternoon, but I wanna give it my best shot!
If I can't do it (which seems likely), they'll just get a locksmith in.
There's a decent chance that they're using the try-out combination, but google isn't turning it up for me - any clues?
Any advice or links to guides would be great.
Thanks!
