PC and vibrations!!

Just bought the PC setup from coastaltool and I was surprised at how much vibration I felt at settings 5 to max (6). I was using the 6" counterweight, and the PC hook/loop with a CMA yellow pad...also ran it like that with the white polishing pad that screws directly in. There was an awful lot of vibration/shaking at the higher speeds. Am I doing something wrong or does it just do that. It did the trick, but I figured for the amount of money it would be smoother.
 
It's suppose to vibrate. It's the orbital effect if I'm not mistaken. I've only cranked mine up to 4 and the shakes are there.
 
Because of the random rotation and the power (amps) of this quality machine, you will feel vibration. What did the gentleman for Meguiar's (Forrest) call these things - "jiggle machine". :D



Love my PC! :bounce
 
Do you use the handle that comes with it? The farther away from center you are the more you feel the vibrations. I don't even use the handle any more, I just hold on the the black grip on the tool itself... reduces the vibrations a significant amount.
