OPERATION
Secure the working area properly before you start to compact.
Never attempt to put the machine into service without having read the security, setup and
operation instruction in this manual and having performed all necessary checks and tasks
described in the chapter before.
The correct level of humidity is decisive for good compacting results. Humidity is a kind of
lubrication helping to compress particles more together.
Compacting an underground without any humidity is not possible. Too high levels of humidity
make compacting ineffective as well and might cause the machine to stall.
Do not use the tamping rammer at hard undergrounds, frozen underground or rocky underground.
