Troubleshooting; Maintenance - Evolution Hulk Compactor Plate Instruktionshandbuch

Compaction increases the density of the material and therefore increases
its load bearing capacity. Reduces air voids and therefore reduces the risk
of subsidence, expansion and contraction, due to ingress of water.
Safe Disposal Instructions for the protection of the environment.
