Adjustable frequency is available from 3,300vpm/55 Hz to 4,000vpm/67 Hz, achieved by moving the throttle.

Drums are machined to be perfectly round said Volvo, while the outer 20mm of each drum is chamfered and the edges are given a 9mm radius. These features contribute to a smooth rolling finish that doesn’t mark the asphalt, it said.

Both drums also include a pressurised water system that provides a constant flow to the drum surfaces.

The DD25 compactor uses a 24.8kW three-cylinder diesel engine, and an integral safety system will shut down the engine and apply the brakes should the operator get off the seat.

    The diesel-operated Liftlux 245-25 by JLG is well-known, like the rest of the Liftlux range, for its extremely rigid and stable triple-arm scissor, giving the operator a comfortable work environment, even when the lift is elevated at full height. Because of the model’s 500kg platform capacity and large roll-out deck that extends the platform to 5.40metres, it’s said by JLG to offer an ideal solution for use around jobsites when heavy units have to be installed at great height overhead.
