Holytrainer 4 exhibits play between the ring and cage

The ring and cage on my new HT4 have some wiggle room where the integrated lock sits. I hadn’t caught this before, but now that it’s there, I can shift the side to side quite easily—it looks like it might snap off from the main body if I really wanted it to. Has anyone else used a Holytrainer model and noticed similar play between those parts? Please say it’s not a big deal because I’ve already gone through roughly 500 euros of cages in just a few months: first my CB6000 cracked, then the Cellmate had its pin and screw pop out from the lock failure. Now this happens to the Holytrainer 4:cry::cry::cry:. Appreciate any advice!
