The Jumping Jack is powered by a 4 stroke : 4 or 5.5HP Lifan or Honda engine. Also called a jumping jack compactor, tamper or rammer, the jumping jack has a relatively smaller foot compared to other plate compactors.
Our jumping jack is specifically intended for rough terrain applications. It features a well-balanced structure, and it won't tip over when turning corners or vibrating. The machine can be operated with ease, even in limited spaces such as narrow trenches to access gas or water supply pipes. It exerts a strong vibration into the ground and allows a 16 to 25 inch-thick layer to be compacted.
Unlike the normal plate compactor that is used to tighten loose particles, the tamping rammer is most commonly used to compact sticky soils such as clay and clayey silt in sewer trenches or various other housing sites. Of course, the rammer can also tamp sand and gravel.
