ok still working on this thing, now i know where to look i can feel the small ridge on the edge of the wheel 3 numbers down. well on the last to digits i still cant find them anywhere on the first/top 2 wheels.

BUT

The lock works on to combinations, i set it to 0-0-9-9 so its easy to remember, but it will also open on 0-2-9-9....

SO i changed the combination up and the second from top wheel ALWAYS opens on 2 combinations....

I didn't think this was possible... any ideas
