What size pad? Did you try with less pressure?

The speed was five and the six inch cutting pad (orange).

Which 6" orange paf? LC flat? CCS?
The 6 inch isn't really recommended for the PC, the 5.5 do much better due to the less surface area. So with the larger pad you are able to use less pressure due to that fact.
Also did you bump it all the way up? I always kick mine to full bore(6) for correction work.
Re: Help With PC 7424 XP HD!
all the recent posts of late related to problems with polishers seem to be pc-related.
Could it be a bad batch, or are they just so much more common than GG6 or the Megs unit that when problems arise, it only appears that it's more frequently the pc that is messing up?
haven't seen any posts of late saying my GG or GV112 is not spinning or melting pads etc...
*knocking on wood so my GG6 doesn't konk out on me next time I use it*

If you put a new pad on does that fix the problem? If so, your pads need to be cleaned and dried. It sounds like they may be gunked up.
Re: Help With PC 7424 XP HD!
My suggestion:
Purchase a 5" Backing plate and some Lake Country 5 1/2 Inch Flat Pads.
I'd suggest the pad "six pack" 2-orange, 2-white, 1-black, 1-blue
It makes a huge difference with a PC!

I actually did try a new pad and the same thing happened and these pads were brand new just opened as with the porter cable.
