Hi all

Just wondering if anyone has had an issue with the trigger on a C18?

My drill is a couple of months old. Hard to explain the issue but the green trigger bends down if I engage it on the lower half and just does not feel right, you don't get the fine speed control you expect from a festool. It has even locked in a few times and if I take my finger off the trigger the drill keeps spinning until I nudge it out.

Going to send off for repair but just concerned it's going to come back the same way or quickly happen again if this isn't a faulty component or assembly.

Thankyou
 
I had similar. The flat spring of the reverse fixation broke and the chip clung to the trigger. Replaced. Everything was fine.
