So, I found a PC 7424 in my dad's garage. Unfortunately he doesn't know anything about it so I come to you for advice. The label says 6" HD orbital buffer. It must be over 5 years old and it is the polisher and counterweight(?) only. It says on the counterweight that it is for only 5" pads.
What else do I need to get this thing running? Backplate and pads, anything else to make the meguiar's pads work with this? Is there any reason to think it is any less safe than newer models? I was planning on getting the pc 7424xp when it comes out soon, but that was before I knew I could get a free old one, so I come to you for help!
I plugged it in and turned it on and it works but one thing concerns me. Now, keep in mind I have only ever hand waxed stuff before so I have no clue, but when I turned it on and put the power on 5 it was shaking my hand pretty darn hard. It surprised me and I just want to confirm with you guys that is normal. Thanks!
