FEATURES
The tamping rammer is a powerful compacting
tool capable of applying a tremendous force in
consecutive impacts to a soil surface. Its appli-
cations include soil compacting for road, em-
bankments and reservoirs as well as backfilling
for gas pipelines, water pipelines and cable
installation work.
Circular motion is converted to create impact
force. The tamping rammer develops a power-
ful compacting force at the foot of the ram-
mer. To maintain optimum performance, prop-
er operation and service are essential.
CONSTRUCTION
The tamping rammer is equipped with an air
cooled, four-cycle gasoline engine. Transmis-
sion of the power takes place by increasing the
engine speed to engage the centrifugal clutch.
