What is the common issue you have encountered in compactors?

I'm curious-what's the most common issue you've run into with compactors? Is it engine problems, vibration issues, or something else? Would love to hear your experiences and any tips for keeping them running smoothly!

For me, it's usually vibration issues-things shaking loose, bolts backing out, that kind of stuff. Engine problems happen sometimes, but basic maintenance goes a long way. Best tip I've learned: do quick checks before using it and don't ignore weird noises or extra vibration. It'll save you bigger headaches later.

I’ve seen a mix of issues, but fuel and starting problems are probably the most common, especially clogged carburetors or stale fuel from sitting too long. Vibration can also cause wear over time, like cracked mounts or loose fasteners. Regular use, draining old fuel, and doing quick checks before each job really help prevent most of these problems.

Well for me it's the hydraulic leaks!! May usually be from worn hoses or seals that can reduce the pressure and can affect performance.

In my experience,vibration issues are the most common..often caused by worn mounts,loose bolts,or poor maintenance!! Regular inspections help a lot....

One common issue I've noticed with compactors is hydraulic failure or leaks, especially after extended use. Regular maintenance checks can really help prevent downtime

one common issue i've encountered with compactors is hydraulic problems-things like lekas, low pressure, or worn seals. these often lead to weak compaction performance and uneven operation, especially if routine maintenance is skipped.
