Tärylevy Zipper ZI-RPE60

The Zipper ZI-RPE60 is a petrol-powered vibratory plate designed for medium-duty compaction tasks on soil and asphalt surfaces. With a plate width of 35 cm and an effective compaction depth of 51 cm, this model balances maneuverability and compaction force. The machine travels at up to 13.8 m/min and weighs 62 kg, offering a stable platform for consolidation work in small- to medium-sized construction and landscaping projects.

Advantages

The Zipper ZI-RPE60 combines a compact footprint with a durable petrol drive system to deliver consistent compaction performance. Its relatively light weight for a petrol plate makes it easier to transport and position while still providing sufficient impact for both soil and asphalt. The unit’s travel speed supports steady forward movement during passes, helping to maintain uniform surface consolidation. Components are arranged for basic serviceability to reduce downtime on site.

Suitable for

• Compacting sub-base and top layers in small road repair and driveway work
• Landscape projects such as paths, patios, and garden areas
• Trench backfill compaction for utilities and drainage
• Small to medium asphalt patching and maintenance tasks

Key specifications

• Drive type: petrol engine
• Plate width: 35 cm
• Compaction depth: 51 cm
• Operating travel speed: 13.8 m/min
• Operating weight: 62 kg

How to use

Start the machine according to the manufacturer's engine start procedure and check fuel and oil levels before operation. Position the plate at the edge of the area to be compacted and engage the throttle to achieve the desired travel speed. Move the plate in overlapping passes to ensure consistent compaction across the surface; for asphalt work, perform multiple passes with gradual overlaps until the required density or surface finish is achieved. Avoid abrupt turns or operation on steep slopes; always follow safe handling practices and ensure the working area is clear of bystanders.

Recommendations

Use the Zipper ZI-RPE60 on prepared surfaces free of large stones and debris. For cohesive soils, consider moistening the material slightly to improve compaction results; for granular materials, use steady overlapping passes. Regularly inspect engine controls, plate condition, and vibration mounting components, and perform scheduled maintenance to maintain consistent performance and extend service life.
