Forward travel vibratory plate WP

The WP vibratory plate series are the high-performance pros for the compaction of asphalt and light mixed soils as well as compacting over interlocking paving stones. Because of the center-mounted control handle and specially shaped base plate, the WP plates can be easily maneuvered and turned. The heavy-duty design is ideally suited for professional use when compacting mixed soil subbases, walkways, roads and parking lots and for asphalt finishes. Using the wheel set (accessory), the WP plates can be easily moved around the job site by one person. Sturdy protective frame for engine and water tank The durable protective frame protects the engine and water tank from damage. This saves repair costs. The tubular frame can also be used as a control handle when operating the machine sideways, which is ideal for compaction along edges. Low-maintenance design for low TCO The V-belt is protected from damage by a sturdy housing and can be easily tensioned. This reduces wear, saves spare parts costs and attains a long service life. Machines starting at 13 kN are equipped with a cylindrical roller bearing. This is more sturdy and attains a longer service life than a ball bearing. Control handle The central attachment of the control handle makes it possible to turn the machine effortlessly. Due to this, a higher level of working comfort and efficiency are possible. The frame can be swiveled forward, which allows pulling the machine, e.g. on slopes. Low hand-arm vibration The low hand-arm vibration values (< 5 m/s²) enable comfortable work. The machine contributes only a small amount to the operator’s daily vibration exposure. He may work a full eight hour with the unit
