ABSTRACT:
A self-propelled and reversible compactor 10 includes a motor 12, a motor mounting plate 14, a tamper plate 16, a vibrator assembly 30, a driven pulley 38, a drive pulley 48, and a directional control arm 54. The vibrator assembly 30 is pivotally attached for selective pivotal positioning of a vibrator housing 36 of the vibrator assembly 30 at a first end 26 or a second end 28 of the compactor. The driven pulley 38 is mounted on a shaft 34 of the vibrator housing 36. The directional control arm 54 provides a manually operated control for providing the selective pivotal positioning of the vibrator housing 36. An endless flexible belt transmits the power from the drive pulley 48 to the driven pulley 38. Components mounted on the engaging end 58 of the directional control arm 54 engage one of the two tangential strands of a flexible endless belt 52 for pivotally displacing the vibrator housing 36 from the first end 26 to the second end. This pivotal displacement controls the direction of self-propelled movement of the compactor 10.
