Ballast box
Water and wet sand ballast
Remove the top covers (1) and side upper covers (3) and fill with
water and sand through this opening.
Keep the side lower covers (2) closed during the water filling.
Do not remove the draining plugs (4) because the water may
leak when the ballast is filled with it.
Fill the ballast box, when necessary, with gravel, sand and steel.
The water shall be added when it is filled with sand, so it can fill
all the spaces between the ballast.
When using the roller with mixed ballast, start using
the steel objects available, and then add the
requisite amount of sand and water.
Distribute the ballast evenly.
