PC counterweight?

[Mitchubishievo]

Hey everyone,



I just came home from getting a PC 7336 and it has a 6 inch pad counterweight...if I'm going to be using propel pads and a 5 inch backing plate, do I need to get a different counterweight?

here's an interesting thread about the difference on both the 5" & 6" counterweight. http://meguiarsonline.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=3330&highlight=counterweight

You should be fine, but if you want a 5" weight I think you can get one for $2 when you order your Propel pads.



I have a 5" weight in my PC and it does fine at speed 6 with Propel pads, but there are many here who use the 6" weight (7336) with no issues.

6 Inch weight, 5 inch backing plate, and 6 - 6 1/2 inch pads is the best set up I have tried. I would leave the 6 inch weight in.
