Hi folks, I'm a newbie here, signed up to join the fun, learn some stuff, maybe teach a tip or two, and hopefully get some help with a couple of problems I'm having. But there is something I need to get off my chest...
First of all, $44 for a replacement cord is a royal rip off.
Secondly, the deflector is by far the worst piece of equipment festool makes in my opinion. I have striped the insulation off of several cords by way of the cord becoming lodged in the far left channel of the guide rail. Which takes me back to bitch #1 above. Why doesn't the deflector cover the entire end of the guide rail?? If I need to use a gecko or something else that slides into this channel I could take it in from the opposite end, right?
Yeah, I know, just make sure the cord doesn't get near this channel, but its hard to catch it everytime.
