Press the macro button and it will take better close up pictures
I assume the issue is play in the shaft leading to blade contact though?

New blades look bigger diameter (or at least a bigger trim to give a big diameter on the visible edge) is that the case or just an illusion from the pictures?

This will not work. Send the Turbo back and ask Dennis for the information required. You are living in the past.
