Anyone experience this? It seems to be getting worse. One side shows a lot more blade than the other. I have to keep cranking it up making one side very aggressive so the other side can cut.
I was about to take pictures and as I turned it down to a 1, I ended up shaving off a chunk of thumb skin. I took a few pics but it doesn't show well (of the razor, not my thumb).
Maybe I need a new razor. I PIFd all of my razors to new shavers and I don't want to buy another Futur if this is a common problem.

Thanks but it doesn't seem to make a difference when I turn the cap 180 degrees.

unscrewed the handle , reversed spring top to bottom and turned the blade table 180 and put it back in the receiver, screwed handle back on
I think there is a you tube video of this.
Give that a try, it worked for me.
Here is one. http://youtu.be/GuDCHb9-uJ4
Thanks I'll try that.

Thanks, looks aligned now and shaved great. What is the reason? Was it put on backwards from the manufacturer?

Should have got one of these:

I've got two of them and no problems to speak of.

My Futur lasted about 4 months before the plating started flaking off
