FXA50A6 High-Cycle Concrete Vibrator

The FXA50A6 High-Cycle Concrete Vibrator is a top - notch tool for working with low - slump concrete. It comes with a 2 - foot head, a 20 - foot hose, and a 33 - foot cord, operating at 180 Hz. High - cycle vibrators like this one are essential for ensuring consistent power to work stiff concrete mixes into corners, around rebar, and get rid of air pockets. Powered by a 2 - amp electric motor, it uses a three - phase motor at 180 cycles and needs a special GDP5H high - cycle generator. It retains 95% of its power under load. The permanently lubricated oversized head bearings offer excellent durability. The hose can be extended up to 45 feet (13.5 meters), and there's a waterproof control box. Optional 50 - and 100 - foot (15, 30 meters) extension cords are available.

Using the FXA50A6 High - Cycle Concrete Vibrator is quite straightforward. First, make sure you have the high - cycle generator GDP5H ready and connected properly. Then, start the generator to power the vibrator. When using it on low - slump concrete, insert the 2 - foot head into the concrete and move it around corners and near rebar to remove air pockets. Remember, the vibrator needs a three - phase power source at 180 cycles, so always use the recommended generator. As for maintenance, check the permanently lubricated oversized head bearings regularly. Although they're designed for durability, a quick inspection can help catch any potential issues. The waterproof control box is a great feature, but still keep it away from excessive water. If you plan to extend the hose or use the optional extension cords, make sure all connections are secure. With proper use and care, this vibrator will serve you well for a long time.
