My compadre kills the tabs, but it will disc them out in the proper setting. I was having the same problem and had to adjust the settings internally. Not suggested by tesoro but it did work.

I hit tabs when I have them disced out also. It is usually the thicker square tabs that hit, but I search at just above foil so I am used to digging alot of them
