The tires buckle under the action of the soil pressure. (3) Double action of the spring pad : It breaks the clods & It packs the soil between the tires. The tire packs the soil in several directions and uniformly. ® The tire recaptures its initial shape which disengages all the earth from its circumference. (5) The soil is perfectly packed at a good depth and uniformly. The soil is perfectly...
