I just got one too, the vibrator oil up front came empty, did yours come with oil in it?

[@NickPixelTV]

Mine had oil in it i opened it up to check after because there was a drip onto the box from it sitting on trailer i will pin this as a notice for people to check theirs I should of included that in the video 💪 thanks

[@AlexLincoln-oz2uz]

What oil does it call for? Looked in the manual and can’t find

[@BigDan12]

@@AlexLincoln-oz2uz I used the same as the engine, full synthetic 10w30

@MrBallinBalls i did some more research online….seemed from the little I could find your on the right track! It’s odd they don’t mention it…..maybe on purpose😂

My first job out of high school was running the Whacker plate on a asphalt crew fixing roads and building driveways, this brings back memories of hot hard work days. Stay elevated Nick Pixel ✌️ ❤️

[@NickPixelTV]

Thank you okami! Appreciate you

[@thepitpatrol]

Forget that compactor. What a beautiful truck.

[@NickPixelTV]

LOL Thank you PitPatrol appreciate that

[@patcb829]

I swear they print those receipts with disappearing ink, all the stores do it not just them. Looks like a solid unit.

[@NickPixelTV]

Lol the back side if it with disclosures was good 😁

[@Justin-Outdoors]

Spray the receipt with rustoleum clear coat

If it's Thermal transfer paper heat is the enemy

*Love That Beginning Intro! Excellent Product Review!* 👏🏻

[@NickPixelTV]

Thanks CJ

[@ronfults3844]

Thanks for the review. I had rented a plate compactor to do so touch up on a gravel driveway to see how it would work. I'd never used one before. The gravel was originally laid with a vibrating roller but it had started to get loose in a few places. I rented one of these to see how it would do repairing those spots. Did a pretty good job. I decided to buy one and use it to maintain my driveway. I was looking at buying this exact unit. You've helped make the decision for me.

[@NickPixelTV]

Did you pick it up. Mine is still working well at our camp. I have more projects for it here soon and surely in spring. Thanks for spending time on a comment here

[@Living-The-Dream]

Good one Nick……no fun to run in the dust 😏 where’s,the rain? Looks like a solid unit 👍💪👏🇺🇸 Rick

[@NickPixelTV]

We def need rain! Will have this unit running on a few projects here soon

[@johnhudson6469]

Looks like a good addition to the tool crib! I’ll be over to borrow that sucker next week😂😭 Love ya brother ❤️🪓💚🔪

I wish you were close brother many irons in the fire 🔥

[@laurarosekrug777]

4:48 Too funny! Looks like a nice piece of equipment to have around!👍

[@rayray_8864]

I saw this machine online just now and I might just get it for my small garden business! Beats using a tamper.

[@NickPixelTV]

I believe it will serve you well!!

[@kevinmaxam2414]

Nice addition to your property for up coming projects. Be safe and be careful

[@NickPixelTV]

Thank you Kevin! It’s working well!

[@ChuckWood-ou1nw]

My exciter drive came empty as well. 17mm socket for the plug. I used John Deere hy-gard till it ran out. No mention of this drive other than the exploded parts list in the back of the manual. It’s just a few bearings- I’m guessing anything is better than nothing… just something else to check out of the box🤔

[@robburke8867]

I bought that compactor a while back. It works like a champ. And the wheel kit is definitely a bonus! Good video buddy.

[@NickPixelTV]

Thank you Rob! Appreciate your time here

[@Pablo_19_26]

Hows it holding up?

[@jerethubbard5415]

Detailed information about product✅

[@red2965]

Take a pipe cut a slot that will accommodate the top of the oil and drill a hole in the other end and put a rod in the otherside with the hole. Makes quick, easy work just make sure it's started correctly

[@casterman2]

That looks formidable 👊🏻

[@NickPixelTV]

Lol

[@sizemoretreeworks]

very cool, you'll be able to pour all the concrete now. @harborfreight has some great options on some tools. nice lid.

[@NickPixelTV]

I know a guy for the lids if you need one 🌲😉

[@NickPixelTV]

Mr block missed you hope you are well my friend

[@SethFeliciaLogston]

Hey, hopefully you haven't already answered something similar, but how do you think it would do on a out 4 inches of 3/4 minus? Going to be putting in a gazebo and want to lay down rock before I pour the pad.

[@JosThoSul]

How steep of a hill can you run that on? I'm curious because our gravel driveway has a section with an incline and I'm wondering if this would handle that.

[@dukewaxberg3869]

Have you purchased a plate pad for doing pavers with it?

[@robojohn181]

Did you ever find out where to get a pad for pavers

[@jeremydiaz6267]

I wish they would of added a water tank with this new style. Looks great otherwise!

F***ing figures, I bought the 6.5 HP one about 2 months ago and now they have a bigger one with wheels for the same price. Pisses me off!

[@NickPixelTV]

I hear you i figured when the 6.5 went on sale that something new was coming sucks

Just got one, going to fire that pig up and work it like a red headed step child. Thanks for info...
