We had trouble opening the safe with the instructions.
Then the prior owner came and showed us.

The instructions say 'clear to 0, Left 4x to 34, Right 3x to 75, Left 2x to 43, Right until STOP'

(Note, numbers have been changed to protect the tempted)


What this means in English...
Turn Right (CLOCKWISE) until 0.
Turn Left, counting the number of times you see 34.
Stop the FOURTH time you see it. Left=Counter Clockwise.
Turn clockwise until 75 appears for the THIRD TIME.
Turn CCW until 43 appears the SECOND time.
Then turn Right until it stops.

After that, hire a safecracker off craigslist:

Excerpt:
Wyatt, 51, is a man with time on his hands. He defines himself as a
marginally employed computer repairman, a tinkerer in all things
mechanical and an unrepentant coffee-shop slacker. He learned
everything he knows about safecracking from a 34-page PDF document he
found while doing a Google search on 'safecracking for the computer
scientist.'
[...]
Rodgers recently bought a mid-century home in the Upper Castro
neighborhood, which came complete with a 1-ton antique safe that
prevented him from parking his car in the garage. He was offering 25
percent of the unknown contents to any person who could open the
safe. The only catch was that the safecracker had to haul away the
cracked safe when the job was done.
[...]
At 10:22 a.m., Wyatt cried out, 'I got it!' Rodgers came running over
just as the several-hundred-pound door fell off the safe - a
contractor had removed the hinges in a previously failed attempt to
get in.
Wyatt's reward was indeed 25 percent of the air in the safe. Apart
from that, nothing was inside.
Still, Wyatt had a giant grin on his face as he held the inner
workings of a lock like a shiny piece of gold. His curiosity had been
quenched.
