Brave Reversible Plate Compactor | 20 In. | Wheel Kit | Honda GX200

The Brave 20 - inch reversible plate compactor is a game - changer. It can smoothly switch between forward and reverse, making it a top choice for tricky areas like trenches where navigation is tough.

Using the Brave 20 - inch reversible plate compactor is straightforward. First, make sure the engine is properly fueled with the right type of gasoline for the Honda GX200 engine. Start the engine as you would with a regular small engine. To change the direction of the compactor, use the hydraulic adjustment control lever. This makes it easy to move forward or reverse, especially in tight spaces like trenches. When compacting, move the compactor slowly over the area you want to compact. For sand, gravel, or cohesive soils, the high centrifugal force will do a great job. Just make sure to cover the area evenly. As for safety, always wear appropriate protective gear like safety glasses and ear protection. The reverse travel safety protection is there to keep you safe, but still be cautious. For maintenance, regularly check the oil level in the engine and change it according to the Honda GX200's maintenance schedule. Inspect the cast iron vibrator assembly for any signs of wear or damage. If you need to transport the compactor, fold the handles between 45 and 90 degrees. The included wheel kit can make moving it around even easier.
