COMPACTOR
Portable Unit for Use in Confined Areas
SUITABLE for packing down asphalt or granular materials, the VC-19 vibra- tory plate compactor delivers a 1,700 lb. impact over 5,000 times each minute. It weighs only 160 lb. yet is said to have a force equal to a 10 ton roller.
Equipped with a swing type handle and 19 in. wide plate, the unit com- pacts up to 5,700 sq. ft. per hour in 10 in. to 20 in. lifts. Vibratory reac-

tion force propels it forward in high frequency impulses, up to 60 ft. per minute.
A controlled flow sprinkler system lubricates the bottom of the plate to prevent asphalt sticking to it and four large shock mounts isolate the plate from the engine deck and the handle.
The plate is driven by a Briggs and Stratton 3 h.p. petrol engine.

LOADING SHOVEL
Clamshell Bucket with ton Payload Capacity
THE Ahlmann A 110 loading shovel can now be supplied with a clamshell bucket attachment, which fits as an extension to the loader's hydraulic rear-mounted slewing boom, and a hydraulic winch.
Measuring 93 cm, wide, the clam- shell bucket has a 1 ton payload cap- acity, a maximum digging depth of 3.32 m. and a maximum lifting height of 3.12 m. With the boom horizontal, the bucket extends 2.75 m. in front of the loader.

slewing through the 90 deg. to either side of the loader's centre line can be carried out in 3.2 sec.
The hydraulic-winch attachment, wound with 80 m. of 16 mm. dia- meter cable, develops a tensile force of up to 10 tons. When unloaded, it pays out the cable at a maximum speed of 21 m. per min. and hauls in at 89 m. per min. As with the boom and clamshell, power for the hydraulic operation comes from the loader's four-stroke six-cylinder diesel engine which has a constant output of 115 h.p. at 2,300 r.p.m.
