Festool Trion - Troubles adjusting the guide with FSG blades

Hey everyone :)

Recently bought the Trion jigsaw and I'm getting used to it.
When I used a thinner blade, I adjusted the guide like in the videos where you lock the blade between the guides and then loosen some.

But when I inserted the thicker FSG blade, it wouldn't go inside the guides, at most it sits on the V part of the guide even when fully loosened.
When I try to run it, the paint rubs off the back 2 corners of the blade unlike the thinner blade where the paint rubs off the faces.
Also with a thin blade, I can see it moving when I change the orbital settings, while the thicker blade stays in the same spot pressed against the entry point of the carbide guides.

I centered the guide using the torx screw behind it as well, while the blade was in its lowest state.

I'd like any help if you have an idea of what I'm doing wrong, thanks!
 
The FSG blades are designed for the Carvex saw, not the Trion, unfortunately. They still work, but as you've found out, they're a bit too tight for the Trion.
