11897
The service was excellent with Mike. The part, however, is slightly different from my 2014 auger. I only needed the safety tab. I would have liked to put the whole new handle in as a replacement but the holes for the fxing are different. I was still able to use the safety tab, but it's very expensive for a simple little piece of plastic. I must repeat that I'm 100% satisfied with Mike's service.

Ion replacement handle
I ordered a replacement handle with safety switch and was told they would have to order it in and how long it would take, it was in on time and shipped out, we received it promptly
