I have cracked many codes by just feel and using the lever to feel the drop! The first right turn after three complete revolutions of the dial has one long pause and the rest short! After the long pause is the first in the combination, the left one same thing after one complete revolution, then right again pulling the lever down every drop meticulously. DONE!

I concur with ohiotom but I will use this as a suggested solution in order to get this off the board.
You have to contact Sentry directly to get another combination

Make sure you are working the dial properly for this type of safe. With the door lever fully counter clockwise, turn the dial clockwise a couple turns to start. It should turn quietly. Then turn the dial counterclockwise (LEFT) to the first number in the combination. Now turn the dial clockwise (RIGHT) a full turn passing the first number again, and additionally clockwise to the second number. Then turn the dial counter clockwise from the second number directly to the third number. Try to open with a sharp movement of the door lever clockwise. If this does not work the first time try adding or subtracting ONE to each number in the combination in case the mechanism is worn. If it still does not work it is time for a drill and a power saw to cut the thing open!

If you need your combination and did not previously register your combination on our website, you may request your combination from our Customer Care team. Please send a notarized letter stating you are the owner of the safe. (Note: the owner�s last name must be different from that of the notary public). For locations that require a raised notary seal, use a pencil to shade the seal to insure that it is visible when faxed. The notarized letter needs to include:
Please note: Your combination will be sent to you within 48 business hours of receipt of both the notarized document and payment.
