No Junkman. Haven't even installed the hand-piece. The only modification I made was installing the washer between the shaft and the Adams backing plate. In fact, I'll be holding the PC with one hand at the base and she will not rotate if the pad is touching the surface unless I either crank the speed up to between 4-5 or lift the unit entirely off the vehicle.

Hey Junmkan, Got my PC Adams kit the other day. Love it very much. Question: How come when I'm applying SuperWax w/ the PC setting on 3, even if I'm applying no pressure to the polisher, the pad hardly circulates (i.e. by observing the black mark on the yellow pad) while touching the surface of the car. It practically only circulates if I remove the polisher completely off the surface of the vehicle. This is even more pronounced if I'm working on a horizontal surface. HOWEVER, If I turn the PC up to a setting between 4 and 5, then with the pad will circulate with the weight of the PC on the vehicle. Can I get away w/ using this speed, or if I should use the 3 setting regardless? In other words, is it imperative that the pad moves by using the slowest possible speed (in my case 4 1/2) or just leave the setting at 3. Happy Easter, if we don't hear from you then. All the best to you and your family
