Felco Straddle Wheel Compactors are designed to efficiently and uniformly compact soil on both sides of large diameter pipe. Internal width between the wheels can be specified to your needs. They are typically built with some adjustability. Loosen 4 bolts per wheel, slide the leg assembly to the desired position, and re-tighten. Can also be supplied with an optional hydraulic width-adjusting system.
Wheel diameter can be made to almost anything you want but typically less than trucking width limits.
Options include removable spacer blocks to get the wheels deeper in to the trench, and a "kick stand" that keeps the ear assembly up off the ground if you are utilizing a quick coupler. Standard equipment is a bolt on ear assembly so the attachment can be swapped between machines without to much difficulty - you only need a second ear assembly
