    Rupes LHR 75 mini E mini

    So i was using my mini today and the Velcro on the backing plate came off.
    I assume i need a new backing plate. I don't see how the backing plate comes off.
    in the box i see the allen key but where the vecro came off i dont see anything to unscrew.
    any help would be appreciated, thanks

    There's an Allen bolt, or Hex Head bolt in the center of the backing plate that holds the backing plate to the spindle.

    Could the area where the bolt is located filled with product residue or something else? Maybe dig around with a screwdriver or something and see if you can find it.

    Yes i figured it out. there was an old pad that came apart and stuck to the backing plate.
    I cant understand how the other pads were sticking to it. i thought it was part of the backing plate.
    So basically there is nothing wrong with my backing plate. also sorry for the double post,
    i tried to correct spelling and somehow winded up with 2 posts
