Sky-Watcher ED72 Focus Question

Hi everyone, beautiful sunny day here in Perth, should get some observing in tonight hopefully.

I've heard the term back focus and I'm not sure exactly what it is referring to.
I have a problem with my 420mm FL ED72 when l have higher powered EP in use, usually with a Barlow, in that l cannot get focus due to the EP being too far away in the light path. ie: focusser wound all the way in and still can't reach focus.
I'm using a GSO 2" SD, would a 1.25" make much difference? l don't have one to try at the moment.
Thanks.
