Sinking in the middle ?

It is a fairly firm grade of pad, stays nice and flat and even for me.

 

[S Garbett]

Mabey its a dodgy pad?

 

[Rich-D]

odd...

perhaps you're applying too much pressure and pushing down too hard?

 

[S Garbett]

Dont think iam pushing down that much tho,

how much pressure should i be using?

[Turner]

Apparently push hard enough for the machine to start to bog and then back off a little and thats the right amount of pressure(what i was told anyway)lol

 

[Rich]

Are you holding the machine flat against the panel or have you got it slightly at an angle ?

 

[mattjk]

Yes I agree it looks like you are holding at an angle!

Even still... Odd!

 

[S Garbett]

No definatly straight. I looks it anyways,

Anymore ideas?

looks like a dodgy pad. i had a britemax one which actually arrived sagged and the performance off that is relatively poor. so either complain and get a new one or skip it and buy a new one
