z Check the bottom plate to see if clay or equivalent material has been lodged in the plate mechanism. If so, wash with water and remove.

z Remember the compactor does not work as efficiently on clay or soils that have a high moisture content level. z If the soil has a high moisture level, dry soil to appropriate moisture content level or carry out compaction twice.
