When your work takes you into the trenches, onto steep slopes, or within tight spaces, a rugged John Deere Plate Compactor can help you navigate and dominate. Excavator arm-mounted attachment disperses more powerful compaction forces than manually operated compactors – from the comfort of the cab and without extra crew members – for purpose-built productivity in a heavy-duty package. Designed specifically for trench-, slope-, and excavator-compaction applications, durable plate compactors can also be used for driving pilings, pipes, and fence and guardrail posts.
