Durable Honda Engine
The RP22.40 reversible plate compactor features a durable and efficient 4.8-hp Honda engine for reliable starts, maximum power and low fuel consumption.
Maximum Compaction Output
The reversible plate compactor glides easily across the surface as the twin-shaft vibratory system produces maximum compaction output. The vibratory system also provides for powerful stationary compaction on challenging grounds.
Hydraulic Direction Control
The Bobcat® RP22.40 reversible plate compactor is equipped with easy-to-use hydraulic directional control for quick directional changes and precise compaction in tight spaces. The simple controls, high accuracy and speeds among the fastest in its class allow this machine to get more done in less time.
Well-Balanced Base Plate
With optimum machine balance, stationary compaction work and continuous movement compaction are equally productive, efficient and easy on the operator.
Comfort

Minimized Hand-Arm Vibration
Bobcat® reversible plate compactors feature low handle vibration levels that enhance operator comfort. Isolators designed to absorb vibrations significantly reducing operators’ hand-arm vibration and fatigue.
Easy Transport
Well placed tie-down points and a central hook are integrated into the reversible plate compactor's frame for convenient lifting and transport.
Optional Transport Wheels
Transport the reversible plate compactor easily and quickly around the jobsite without any need for tools. Simply unhook the latch to place the wheels into position and go.
Uptime Protection
