Repair and maintenance compaction jobs have different demands than new construction. You're often working in confined areas, on existing surfaces, with limited time and crew. A heavy, slow plate compactor that's difficult to maneuver is a liability on this kind of work.
The Husqvarna LF80 LAT forward plate compactor was specifically designed to meet these demands. Its lightweight build means one operator can handle it efficiently without fatigue, and its fast operating speed means more ground covered per shift.
