Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and proper function of your Lion Locks 1500 Key Lock Box, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the shackle mechanism and combination dials to ensure smooth operation.
- Weather Protection: While the lockbox is designed for outdoor use, it is not water resistant. For prolonged exposure to harsh weather, consider placing it in a sheltered location to prevent moisture intrusion and potential damage to internal mechanisms or stored items.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the lockbox for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure the shackle and compartment close securely.
Troubleshooting
- Lockbox Not Opening:
- Ensure the correct 4-digit combination is entered. Double-check each dial.

- Ensure the lockbox is open and the reset lever is fully moved to the 'SET' position before changing the dials.
- Confirm the reset lever is returned to its original 'LOCK' position after setting the new code.
