The LeeBoy LB5013 Plate Compactor is designed for asphalt, paving and utility applications on jobsites. This single-direction compactor is powered by a 5.5-hp Honda GX160 engine with recoil starter.
During use, the machine provides a travel speed of 96 ft. per minute and 5,500 vibrations per minute. Operators can access a heavy-duty handle for positioning when guiding the cast iron baseplate. The baseplate features rounded edges for smooth finishes on surfaces. A shock-mount system minimizes hand-arm vibration, enabling control from the handle. The handle can be flipped over to switch positions as needed.
An integrated water tank with 13.7-qt. capacity helps control dust and prevents asphalt from sticking during operation by pushing water under the compactor. Optional equipment includes a wheel transport kit and a polyurethane paver stone pad kit.
