Help!!

Well I got my new pc today, but there is one problem. My backing plate broke, yes! When I was using it, it started fine (rotating) but then it would not rotate when placed over the car. Did I tight it too much? There is also like a small round thing where does that goes?

The small round thing, is that a washer? If so, it goes between the backing plate and pc shaft.

Re: Help!!

Take it back apart and put the spacer on(small ring thing), then backing plate and tighten nut to hold both on. You have jammed the plate up against the tool.

Re: Help!!

the small ring goes between the backing plate and the slug? to prevent direct contact with the backing plate and the PC?
