    Default Herring & Co Antique safe combination change possible?

    I recently purchased an antique safe with a functional dial combination lock.

    I would like to know if the combination for this lock is fixed or can it be changed?
    Mfg: Herring & Company
    Lock: John Farrels
    (patent July 25 1865)

    Is there a maintenance schedule that I should follow for the mechanical linkages/lock/hinges for the safe?

    Several pictures would be much more helpful than a short text description. See http://www.antique-locks.com/showthr...-to-your-posts

    I'd be very surprised if the combination cannot be changed.
