4.3 Compaction Operation
The HP1900S is designed for compacting soil, sand, gravel, and paving stones. Its automatic forward movement simplifies operation.
- Soil/Sand Compaction: Position the plate on the area to be compacted. Guide the machine with the handle, allowing it to move forward at its operating speed of 25 m/min. Overlap passes to ensure uniform compaction. The machine achieves a compaction depth of 30 cm.
- Paving Work: For compacting paving stones, attach the black rubber mat to the base plate. This prevents damage to the surface of the paving stones while ensuring effective compaction.
