Kapex guard sticking

[Sparky]

I got a kapex before the price increase and can't say enough good things about it, but my guard is starting to stick the last 2 inches when finished a cut. I have blown it out several times and helps for a bit but then starts to stick again in a day or so. It seems to hit some resistance the last couple inches. The one things I have seen is the bearing doesn't seem to really contact anything or move much during the process wondering if that is normal. Anyone have this problem? Thanks in advance for the help guys

Well off to festool service today. Hopefully will get back before 2 long sucks to ship all the way out east.

Mine started to do this after i used the saw without extraction. I removed the clear guard. it comes off easy and then it has a metal shim that springs out. clean this up and lubricate and insert back in and it will work like new.
