What happens here
With the compactor firmly attached to the plank, grasp the ground-level end of the wooden plank. Begin to lift this end and slowly walk forward, moving the end of the plank towards the trailer. As you walk, the plank acts as a lever, lifting the plate compactor and progressively sliding it up and onto the trailer bed. Continue this controlled movement until the entire plate compactor is safely and fully loaded onto the trailer.
Goal: Utilize leverage to move the heavy compactor onto the trailer bed.
