Backing plate issues...
I have a question regarding my new Lake Country 5' rotary backing plate. I'm wondering if anyone else has had this issue. The issue is that the hole for lining the pads up correctly with the plate (I'm using 5.5 in LC Force pads) isn't perfectly centered. So when I stick the tool into the hole and then put the pads on, they vibrate like crazy. I tried eyeballing it but was not successful.
Is the backing plate defective? Has anyone else had this issue?
Thanks

Hi, welcome to AutoGeekOnline!
Which Lake Country plate are you referencing? Also what machine are you using?

Re: Backing plate issues...
I'll be interested to hear which backing plate you are using, and the pads.
A quick look at LC offerings here don't show an opening of any kind for a tool to go into which would assist with mounting a pad; DA or rotary. They all appear to have a flat velcro surface.
Mounting the 5" pad on my HF DA was easy and simple. I threaded it on, velcro'd my pad to the backing plate and I was good to go. The LC backing plate was far better ballanced than the 6" one which came with the DA polisher, so it was a good upgrade in many ways.
