I don't think I'm using the ab wheel correctly because my back hurts. What's the correct usage? Thanks.

You're too weak. IF your back's hurting its because your abdominals aren't strong enough to support you at the bottom of the movement and you end up hyperextending your back. This is pretty stressful on it. So always stop before your spine goes past the neutral/flat position and make sure you keep good form. When your abs are too fatigued you'll have to discipline yourself and not go as far down or risk injury.
 
What in the fuck is going on in here...
