|
||||
| Below are some things to consider when using a mechanical earth rammer: | ||||
 |
Never start the rammer on a hard surface as this could damage the machine.
Push on the handlebar with a downward force to keep control. |
|||
 |
The number of times an area needs to be rammed will depend on the content, amount and depth of the soil.
Water can be added to soil to keep dust under control and aid compaction. |
|||
 |
Do not force the mechanical rammer forward; allow it to move itself, guided only by you using the handle. Force on the back or front of the plate will damage it. | |||
