LHR 21 ES dead right out of box

i just got this new machine,plugged it in and nothing,dead as a brick. Just curious if anyone else had this happen. I'll have the replacement in a few days so I'm not worried,I know they'll make it right. No worries,Just curious. I was anxious to use it.

Did you get it from AG?

i thought each one of these were tested before they were packaged/boxed from the factory?

Probably a faulty trigger. Mine you have to press it all the way down, and sometimes it seems it won't start, you press it and keep it pressed, then it will start. Lot different from Flex and other DAs.

Italian made gear reliability ... hmm.

Like a Flex never had an issue???? I've seen problems with felt rings, speed control thingees, and BPs.

Every product has a few faults. A detailing package is pretty much Christmas so the annoyance is understandable.

I did get it from AG. I believe the replacement is on its way. I just thought it strange it didn't work at all. Never a doubt AG would make it right

The Rupes has a delay start. Did you hold the trigger for a second or two?

That's a pretty bogus random comment, not to mention some what racially biased against Italian made products. I have three Rupes polishers and they work flawlessly.
