Why it works

Built for repeat-pass site compaction

Hydraulic forward and reverse

Switch direction under power instead of manhandling the machine round for each pass.

Reverse-travel safety

The plate defaults to forward drive if the operator lets go of the handle.

Heavy-duty roll cage

A roll cage with an integral lifting eye for crane or forklift handling on site.

Self-cleaning base-plate

Impact-resistant, open base-plate design stops material building up mid-job.

Sealed belt cover

Protects the clutch and drive belt from grit and site debris.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the petrol or diesel version?

It's the petrol version, powered by a Honda GX160 engine. If you'd rather run on diesel, the FPR40/25D is the same frame with a Hatz 1B20 diesel engine fitted instead.

How much does the machine weigh?

145kg. It's fitted with transport wheels as standard, and the roll cage has an integral lifting eye for crane or forklift lifting where that's easier.

Can it compact working forward and in reverse?

Yes - the hydraulic drive powers the plate in both directions, and it's built to default to forward travel automatically if you let go of the handle.

What's the hand-arm vibration figure used for?

The 4.2m/s² HAV rating helps site teams calculate how long an operator can run the machine before hitting daily workplace vibration exposure limits.

Does the base-plate clog up on wet or sticky ground?

It's designed not to - the open, impact-resistant plate is self-cleaning, so it sheds material rather than building it up underneath during use.

Can the handle be folded for transport?

Yes, it folds to 45 degrees and 90 degrees, which makes it easier to load into a van or trailer and to store between jobs.

What warranty comes with it?

Fairport cover the machine for 1 year from the date of purchase, and the Honda engine for 3 years. A warranty registration form needs to be submitted within 7 days of sale for a claim to be valid.
