- Basic fault diagnosis

The training is also important for teams who have been using compaction equipment for years. Sometimes things can get forgotten, or operators can get into bad habits. Refresher training can help to ensure people aren’t cutting corners or overlooking simple factors that could compromise safety, bale quality or machine durability.
