Safety Button Will Not Depress

I bought this pole saw almost a year ago. The saw cuts extremely well. The problem I have is that the safety button near the trigger will not depress. This happened within the first month of owning the saw. I worked around the problem by getting it depressed (after much wiggling and force) and duct taped it closed. It doesn't work long before the tape stretches. Obviously it is a flaw in the one I own. So frustrating!! If the safety button actually worked I would give the saw 5 stars. I see Greenworks has put this button on their other chain saws. Now I'm nervous to purchase any product with the safety button.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very disappointed with the outcome of this purchase. It was supposed to be a direct replacement for my 40V Kobalt trimmer. It did not fit, and when I considered returning it, there would be a net expense to me. Never again!

Hello Tim Swanson,
Thank you for your feedback. We sorry to hear the part was not compatible with your string trimmer. We kindly recommend contacting Kobalt directly for inquiries on replacement parts to ensure that you purchase the correct parts for your string trimmer.
I’ve been happy with my 48v duel battery trimmer. Until I had to replace the trimmer string. I’ve ordered 3 different ones non of them fit… why do you have to make sooo many?
Such a great product and addition to my Greenworks 80v mower and blower. I love that the speed of the motor is adjustable during use and not just an “on/off”.
It didn’t fit my trimmer. It’s the 3rd one I have purchased. I’m beyond frustrated
