Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and smooth operation of your Master Lock 875D, especially in outdoor environments, consider the following maintenance tips:

• Regular Cleaning: Periodically wipe down the lock body and shackle with a damp cloth to remove dirt, dust, and debris.
• Lubrication: For optimal performance, particularly in harsh weather conditions, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the shackle and the combination dials once or twice a year. Avoid oil-based lubricants as they can attract dirt.
• Inspect for Wear: Regularly check the shackle and lock body for any signs of damage or excessive wear.

Troubleshooting

• Dials are Stiff: If the combination dials are difficult to turn, apply a silicone-based lubricant as described in the Maintenance section. Ensure no debris is lodged between the dials.
• Shackle Not Opening/Closing: Verify that the correct 4-digit combination is precisely aligned with the indicator line. If the combination is correct and the shackle still does not operate, ensure the shackle is fully pulled up or pushed down during the combination setting process.
• Forgotten Combination: The Master Lock 875D is a set-your-own combination lock. There is no master key or override code to retrieve a forgotten combination. It is crucial to record your combination in a secure, memorable location.
