        I acquired a grand recently that had a HANDS OFF FALLBOARD CLAMP =
on it.  The seller provided me with a key that she knew was the right =

  The key should be like a small Master Lock key, and don't be so sure =
you received the wrong one. Many of those locks require a little =
finesse, in the form of inserting the key, and then pulling it out very =
slightly before turning. Otherwise, it may act as if it doesn't work at =
all. A locksmith could probably pick it and make you a key if that =
doesn't work. Cheaper than replacement.

  Good luck,
  Guy
