Husqvarna LF 60 LAT – Forward Plate Compactor
Product Description
The Husqvarna LF 60 LAT is a lightweight, fast-operating forward plate compactor designed for efficient compaction of asphalt and soil. Ideal for repair, maintenance and small-scale construction projects, it delivers excellent results on driveways, footpaths and parking areas. Its integrated water tank and optimised base plate make it particularly suitable for asphalt work, helping to prevent the plate from sticking to hot surfaces and leaving unwanted marks.
Low Vibration for Comfortable Operation
Designed with Husqvarna’s patented low-vibration handle, the LF 60 LAT helps reduce operator fatigue during extended periods of use. Its efficient handle design keeps hand-arm vibration low, with a stated vibration level below 2 m/s² under specified conditions, supporting comfortable operation throughout the working day.
Efficient Watering System
The integrated watering system prevents hot asphalt from sticking to the bottom plate while using minimal water. An easily adjustable water flow allows operators to control water consumption, while the large, corrosion-free water tank and oversized filling cap make refilling quicker and less frequent.
Optimised for Asphalt Compaction
The specially designed bottom plate provides excellent results when working with asphalt. It helps prevent sticking and reduces the risk of leaving turning marks on the finished surface, making the LF 60 LAT ideal for asphalt repairs and maintenance applications.
Easy Handling and Transportation
With a lightweight design and integrated transport wheels, the LF 60 LAT is easy to manoeuvre and transport between jobs. The fully folding handle also makes the machine more compact for storage and transportation, helping to save valuable space in vehicles and on site.
Reliable Petrol Performance
Powered by a Honda GX160 petrol engine delivering 4.8 hp, the LF 60 LAT provides dependable performance for everyday compaction tasks. Its recoil starting system offers straightforward starting, making it a practical choice for contractors and maintenance teams.
