Water Tank, Yanmar L48 Diesel","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a \u003cstrong\u003eforward plate\u003c\/strong\u003e built for asphalt, and the water tank is the reason. Hot asphalt sticks to a dry steel plate and tears the mat you just laid; the \u003cstrong\u003e15 litre (4 gallon) onboard tank\u003c\/strong\u003e wets the plate continuously so it releases cleanly. If you are compacting patches, driveways, trench reinstatements or paver bedding, this is the machine for it — and at \u003cstrong\u003e525 x 500 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e the plate is nearly square, which is unusual and deliberate: it gives you a wide footprint without the length that makes a plate awkward to steer in a patch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt runs \u003cstrong\u003e100 Hz — 6,000 vibrations per minute\u003c\/strong\u003e, the highest frequency Beton Trowel builds, at \u003cstrong\u003e15 kN of centrifugal force\u003c\/strong\u003e. High frequency and moderate force is precisely the recipe for asphalt and granular bedding: it settles the material without displacing it or bruising the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePower is a \u003cstrong\u003eYanmar L48 air-cooled diesel\u003c\/strong\u003e — 219 cc, recoil start. On a machine that spends its life at full throttle in heat and dust, a diesel simply lasts longer than a small gas engine doing the same duty, and it means one fuel on the truck if the rest of your fleet is diesel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features \u0026amp; Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e15 L (4 gal) onboard water tank, standard\u003c\/strong\u003e — the plate releases from hot asphalt instead of tearing it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e525 x 500 mm (20.7 x 19.7 in.) plate\u003c\/strong\u003e — nearly square, wide coverage without awkward length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100 Hz \/ 6,000 VPM\u003c\/strong\u003e — the highest frequency in the Beton Trowel range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e15 kN centrifugal force\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYanmar L48 diesel\u003c\/strong\u003e, 219 cc, recoil start\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e0–25 m\/min travel\u003c\/strong\u003e, approximately 82 ft\/min\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e35% gradient climb\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransport wheels standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e254 lbs\u003c\/strong\u003e — substantial enough to compact properly, still a two-person lift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetails\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBTPC110Y (some distributors list it as BPTC110Y — see the note below)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeton Trowel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eForward plate compactor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEngine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYanmar L48, single cylinder, air-cooled diesel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 kW \/ 4.7 HP at 3,600 rpm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisplacement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e219 cc, bore x stroke 70 x 57 mm (Yanmar published figures)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStart\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecoil\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlate Size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e20.7 x 19.7 in.
