Re: Todd@Rupes need your thoughts
My only thought is that there is a reason there are pads made specifically for long throw machines, and the CCS pad is not one of them. Good luck

Re: Todd@Rupes need your thoughts
Ive used Lake Country with all my other Rupes for years, never any issue. Plus AG recommended them long ago. I can't stand the Rupes pads...way too stiff, can't grip the surface and slings product everywhere.

Go low pro or thin pro
Thin pro will have the best balance

Recommended them a Long time ago... This is the new and improved tool. Embrace your upgrade. It only warns you with a label over the backing plate when you unbox it..
Use pads with holes in them.
...It'd be like buying a brand new Cadillac, and putting 13" Dayton wire wheels on it...
And then wondering why it doesn't ride like a Cadillac. Lol. Smh..

You can still use the ccs pads, just change them out more often.

Pads with no holes, Rupes LE15 (albeit Gen 1) right there in the pic.

This, and also keep the speed down. Like someone else mentioned, the Mark II is far more powerful (about 30%) than the Mark 1.
