Whell kit

Received my compactor the wheels didn't fit, called HOC and they said they would look into it. At first I didn't think they were looking into it. It was bad communication between both of us. We got the wheel problem fix. I have use this compactor HZR-120 pro 21on three big size jobs and it works great it pounds the heck on the ground. I took a round pointed shovel and jumped with both feet and it bearly went 3 inches into the ground. I shop for a plate compactor on line for a month and I am glad I came across the HOC website. For the money and compactor force it was the the best choice. I will buy again.
