MVH408GH specifications

The Multiquip MVH408GH is a powerful and versatile piece of equipment designed for professionals in the construction and landscaping industries. This robust vibratory plate compactor is engineered to deliver high performance while ensuring operator comfort and ease of use. With its advanced features and technology, the MVH408GH stands out as an essential tool for compacting soil, gravel, and asphalt.

One of the key features of the MVH408GH is its Honda GX160 engine. This reliable, air-cooled, 4-stroke engine offers excellent fuel efficiency and low emissions, making it an environmentally friendly option. The engine delivers a maximum power output, ensuring that the compactor can handle even the toughest jobs with ease. Thanks to its high-performance engine, the MVH408GH can achieve an impressively high compaction force, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The compactor is equipped with a heavy-duty, solid steel base plate, designed to withstand the rigors of frequent use. The base plate measures 22 inches wide, providing a large effective surface area that maximizes compaction efficiency. Additionally, the design of the plate helps to reduce vibration transmitted to the operator, enhancing comfort during prolonged operation.

Another significant feature of the MVH408GH is its easy maneuverability. The compactor features a lightweight design that allows operators to transport and position it effortlessly. It also comes with a foldable handle, which not only allows for compact storage but also provides convenient lifting and carrying options.

The technologically advanced vibration system in the MVH408GH helps to achieve superior compaction results. The system is precisely engineered to produce a high-frequency vibration, which aids in the densification of material during the compaction process. This results in optimal performance, enabling operators to complete their tasks more efficiently.

Safety is also a priority in the design of the MVH408GH. The compactor features a protective frame that shields the engine and other critical components from potential damage on the job site. Additionally, it is equipped with convenient controls that are easy to access, promoting safe and straightforward operation.

In summary, the Multiquip MVH408GH is a top-tier vibratory plate compactor characterized by its powerful Honda engine, robust construction, high compaction efficiency, and user-friendly design. The combination of these features makes it an ideal choice for construction professionals seeking reliability and performance in their compaction equipment.
