Stihl 2-1 - sliding files????

[49erRider]

Good Evening! Had a question about my 2-1 Files.

I have multiples of these for each chain type i own. I've noticed in my 3/8 file that one of the round files has some play and will slide back and forth 1/4-1/2 inch . I open the flip top and nothing looks broken. Is this part of the design that after some use the files don't sit as tight and develop some play? Anything I can do to fix this?

Thanks in advance!

Mine wiggle too. Really doesn't matter much because I don't drag the file back so the files only shift ends once per session.

Okay, I guess I was wondering why some do and some don't? Just didn't make sense to me. Didn't know if a shim or something broke off?
