What speed to use with 7424 & Edge 2000's

A little confused. Should I use the #3 speed setting or follow the Edge instructions on the pad package, which would only be a #1 setting?

Not sure, maybe they are talking about using it on a rotary, or using wax and not a polish?

I just polished on 4 and the pad didn't fly apart so it's all good.
