Hi, anyone had an issue with the Allen key head bolt that holds the retrieval clip on? Mine fell out completely today and was spotted by the groundy. It’s not seen much use as it’s pretty new. Made me worry about the 2 in the main body now, do I remove them and put some thread lock on?0A9C9D29-FBF9-4F17-A64E-43E0F0EC04CB.thumb.jpeg.3f1956fad47d736163bbbda94aa65fb9.jpeg

I would email the manufacturer and ask for an official opinion. Maybe they won't answer but worth a try, it's a safety question.

Ideally you would have a small torque wrench and check the bolts periodically, taking them out and in isn't quite the same.
