Reasons for Compaction
Disturbed soil, new infill, subbase or blacktop
will have air pockets and small voids within,
which, if not compacted can lead to possible
problems developing.
• As traffic crosses the surface of an
uncompacted area, the loads imposed
press downwards on the material
underneath. This can lead to subsidence
of the top surface as material migrates
downwards to fill the voids.
• A static load (house, garage etc) built
upon uncompacted ground could suffer
subsidence as material beneath it moves.
• Water seeping into material that contains
voids and air pockets can collect in these
spaces and will expand during freezing
conditions and contract again during warm/
dry spells. Expansion and contraction is a
major contributory factor causing damage
to building foundations, and can lead to a
structure needing underpinning.
Compaction increases the density of the
material and hence its ability to withstand static
and dynamic loads. Eliminating air pockets
and small voids reduces the chances of water
ingress collection and subsequent subsidence
due to material expansion and contraction.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY – H320-E
THE MAINS PLUG
This product is fitted with the correct moulded
plug for the designated sales market. The
plug meets the requirements of international
standards, and must be connected to a supply
voltage that is equal to that stated on the
rating label. If the plug or mains supply lead are
damaged they must be replaced with a complete
assembly that is identical to the original. Adhere
to the requirements for mains electricity supply
connection that applies in your Country. If in
doubt consult a qualified electrician.
BS plug can only be used in the UK. The plug
should be plugged into the socket indoor to
fulfil the required IP protection degree. The plug
should be incorporated with a power cord longer
than 10m.
OUTDOOR USE – H320-E
exposed to rain, or used in very damp locations.
For added protection use a residual current device
(R.C.D.) that will interrupt the supply if the leakage
current to earth exceeds 30mA for 30ms. Always
check the operation of the residual current device
(R.C.D.) before using the machine.
If an extension cable is required it must be a
suitable type for use outdoors and so labelled.
The manufacturers instructions should be
followed when using an extension cable.
