PC 7424xp over heating

[Newman5]

I was using it on speed 5 for about 20 min with m105 and it started getting hot, the body of it. Then I smelled something burning and look down and this thing is damn near on fire. Smoking off its butt.

Anyone else have this problem?

I never thought about the blue tape over metal idea. Thanks for the tip :props:
The solution to your dilema should be forthcoming soon.

I didn't have any washers on this thing either. I think the backing plate was hitting the counter weight.

Will these washers help or is that correct ???

You need a compression washer!!!

Is that's what I have in the pic ?

They need a warning label do not use unless compression washer is in place .... It's the washer ... Had the same problem

Million times difference in application and ease. I'm a dumbass

I fell victim to this just yesterday. Hope I didn't bust it.
