Does anybody know about the "locking teeth" on this thing? They look different on the picture, I'm not sure if they would lock into position.

it will lock without any problem, I will order some more next week, like a ten in package, I order three last time, I think it better deal if I order ten.

These will fit any Fein Multimaster, and is the best all-around blade I have found for construction.

What "teeth" do you mean. The star pattern that fits on the tool or the actual cutting teeth of the blade?

The Fein Blades are very good, if you have a Fein tool they will lock in 100% secure. You should email me, I have info on rebates and discount codes you can use to get these and other fein blades at a discount, my address is smcjoecohen@yahoo.com.

No. You are meshing to wheels with an equal number of teeth. They need to be the same. Send it back.

It's been awhile since I put it together but I think I turned it upside down before the top was put onto the frame. The legs go in the position and you push each one outward. They should lock in place in the right position. I noticed mine were the same as you describe but I messed with one leg until it locked into place...then, the other one.

the rear clamping jaw might be reversed. If oriented correctly, the jaw will close and hold something paper thin. If it is reversed, you just have to slide it off, flip it around and then you can close it tighter.

I have two of them and the removable Philips bit does lock in the open position. I have never had a problem with the lock. If it does not lock out I would say it's a defect.

The teeth are not fixed, they're movable. Which way the teeth face depends on the vegetation. It is not possible to force them in one direction.

I am sure you tried them upside down and inside out? LOL. I don't believe this is a question for a person who bought the lockbox. My answer would be that Amazon is great about returns. I would return them and get one that the keys work with. The two I bought worked with their keys. Hope you find a solution.

The closed position stays closed but I wouldn't say they lock. Hope that helps.

They are not secured with any kind of locking mechanism. They're basically held in place by being a tight fit.

I've never had that problem. I thread locked the screws even though I thought it was overkill. Perhaps they were screwed in at a bad angle and finally gave out?

You are supposed to have to lock in different position to put in your new combination. I tried it and it didn't work. I had to use bolt cutters to free. I got a different one from the same company. I used the default combination.

I assume it's locked up also? I'd contact the maker. They seem concerned that their product works well. They responded to my review about the poorly designed locking mechanism so they might just send you a replacement. Worth a shot!

Based on the pictures, this model would not have the lockbar insert. At the end of the lockbar is a small torx screw on the models with insert.

Thank you. Mine's a "drop in". I'm concerned about how things clamp to the "metal". Are the jaws metal or hard/soft plastic/rubber?

?that's strange.. mine have never done that...and this is my second one. Is it locked in before you turn it on...you should hear a click when you put them in place....sorry I don't know any better answer. I can only guess that it has something to do with the latching mechanism.

They don't exactly lock into place. There is grooves they set in to keep them in place. I have not had problems with them moving so it seems to work for me.

They do not lock ...but they are tight so they don't collapse unless you want them to. I'm very happy with them ..there made well.
