For those that have a porter cable

and have the counter weight for the 6 inch pad. I noticed when I took the 5 weight off it had a groove on the bottom that fit over this little rubber rail. The 6 weight doesnt have the groove and sits on their awkward. Do I just tighten the weight down on top of this thing?

here is the stock 5 weight, notice the groove on the weight, notice the piece of rubber on the PC where the grove sits


Now notice the 6 weight, no grove so it sits on top of this piece of rubber, not flush at all

lifo, your fine w/ the 6" counter weight you have, that's how all of ours seem to be. What I did notice is you have to tighten it down very tight otherwise there will be a little play there because of the rubber thing. When it's tight, it's how it is supposed to be, no play, and it helps cut down the vibrations.
