6.06.02 Description
Using padfoot shells, a smooth drum can be converted into a padfoot
drum. The increase in surface area widens the field of application of the
compactor to cover not only non-cohesive and sandy mixed soils but also
cohesive and highly cohesive soils.

NOTE
If there are foreign objects between the drum and the padfoot
