PC question

[imported_gators241987]

Alright guys, yes this is a dumb question, but ive tried for about 20 min and cant figure out how to remove the backing plate from the PC. I need to put a smaller backing plate on tommorow so I can use the 4" pads. Any help is appreciated.

Just use the supplied wrench, hold the bolt in place and turn the bp counter clock wise with the bp facing up. It may be a little hard, but it will spin off.

Ahh, i suppose it would be useful if i still had that wrench? Any where to just purchase the wrench?

Did you like... throw away the wrench as soon as you bought the thing thinking it was nothing? If that's the case... wouldn't you assume since it's in the box it serves a purpose?

I moved, so theres a lot of detailing supplies everywhere and it would be like finding a needle in a haystack. Detail supplies, clothes, tools, school books, dvds, electronics everywhere.
