Overview: The Multiquip Gas-Powered Jumping Jack Compactor
Multiquip’s latest gas units elevate the jumping jack compactor category with the reliability contractors expect from Honda-powered equipment. Purpose-built for tight trenches, repair patches, and confined backfill areas, these robust rammers thrive where larger plates can’t reach. Every model pairs a sealed 4-cycle engine with an engineered shoe that channels up to 3,505 lbs. of impact energy—delivering fast, dense compaction without the mixed-fuel hassles of older 2-stroke designs. Whether you call it a jumping jack tamper or a jumping jack machine, the result is the same: fewer passes, flatter lifts, and more productive crews.
Key Performance Advantages
✔️ High-Output Honda Power – GX100 and GXR120 engines generate consistent RPM for full-stroke blows, guaranteeing each jumping jack compactor hit packs maximum force.
✔️ 4-Cycle Efficiency – Lower noise, reduced emissions, and single-gas fueling streamline refills and keep operators on schedule.
✔️ Precision Impact System – Factory-matched spring and crank geometry amplify downforce, turning every ounce of engine torque into usable ground energy.
✔️ Low-Maintenance Filtration – A multi-stage cyclonic air cleaner shields the power plant from dust, extending service intervals on job sites where downtime is costly.
✔️ Operator Comfort – Heavy-duty shock mounts and an ergonomically angled handle reduce hand-arm vibration, letting crews run the jumping jack machine longer without fatigue.
Model Lineup & Specs at a Glance
- MTR40HF – 1,215 lbs. impact, 5.9 in shoe; a nimble fit for utility trenching or tight corners.
- MTX50HD – 2,316 lbs. impact, 10.4 in shoe; a balanced choice for general contractors needing a mid-range jumping jack compactor.
- MTX60HD – 3,060 lbs. impact, 10.4 in shoe; extra punch for cohesive soils that demand higher energy.
- MTX70HD / MTX70HDR – 3,350 lbs. impact, 11.2 in shoe; built for deeper lifts and pipeline prep, available with GX100 or GXR120 power.
- MTX80HDR – 3,505 lbs. impact, 11.2 in shoe; the heavyweight champion of the series, delivering peak force for the toughest backfill tasks.
Across the range, engineers balanced weight distribution and a low center of gravity to keep each jumping jack tamper steady through the stroke, translating energy directly into the soil, not the operator’s arms.
Engineered Details That Matter
Fuel-Smart Operation
A precision carburetor and electronic ignition maximize burn efficiency, trimming daily gasoline costs while ensuring the rammers stay responsive under load.
Protected Powertrain
A centrifugal clutch isolates the engine at idle, preventing accidental shoes strikes when maneuvering the jumping jack machine in tight spaces.
Transport-Ready Design
Integrated lift points and folding handles let one person load or unload, so the jumping jack compactor moves effortlessly from trailer to trench.
