NOTE
This Owner's Manual has been developed to provide
complete instructions for the safe and efficient operation
of the MQ Mikasa Model MT-60H-H2 Tamping Rammer
Refer to the engine manufacturer’s instructions for data
relative to its safe operation.
Before using this tamping rammer, ensure that the
operating individual has read and understands all
instructions in this manual.
SAFETY MESSAGE ALERT SYMBOLS
The three (3) Safety Messages shown below will inform you
about potential hazards that could injure you or others. The
Safety Messages specifically address the level of exposure to
the operator, and are preceded by one of three words: DANGER,WARNING, or CAUTION.
Engine exhaust gases contain poisonous
carbon monoxide. This gas is colorless and
odorless, and can cause death if inhaled.
NEVER operate this equipment in a confined
area or enclosed structure that does not
provide ample free flow air.
Explosive Fuel
GASOLINE is extremely flammable, and itsvapors can cause an explosion if ignited. DO
NOT start the engine near spilled fuel or
combustible fluids. DO NOT fill the fuel tank
while the engine is running or hot. DO NOT
overfill tank, since spilled fuel could ignite if it
comes into contact with hot engine parts or
sparks from the ignition system. Store fuel in
approved containers, in well-ventilated areas
and away from sparks and flames. NEVER
use fuel as a cleaning agent.

The MQ Mikasa MT-60H/H2 tamping rammer is a powerful
compacting tool capable of applying a tremendous force in
consecutive impacts to a soil surface. Its applications include
soil compacting for road, embankments and reservoirs as well
as backfilling for gas pipelines, water pipelines and cable
installation work.
The impact force of the MT-60H/H2 levels and uniformly
compacts voids between soil particles to increase dry density.
Circular motion is converted to create impact force. The MT60H/H2 tamping rammer develops a powerful compacting force
at the foot of the rammer. To maintain optimum performance,
proper operation and service are essential.
Construction of Tamping Rammer
The MQ Mikasa MT-60H/H2 Tamping Rammer is equipped with
an Robin air cooled, four cycle gasoline engine. Transmission of
the power takes place by increasing the engine speed to engage
the centrifugal clutch.
Rammer Gearbox and Spring Cylinder
The MQ Mikasa MT-60H/H2 uses an oil bath lubrication system.
Always check the oil level through the oil level sight glass at the
rear of the tamper foot.
Controls
Before starting the MT-60H/H2 Tamping Rammer, identify and
understand the function of the controls, see Figure 1.
Figure 1 shows the location of the controls and components
for the MT-60H/H2 Tamping Rammer. The functions of each
control is described below:
1.Throttle Lever – Controls engine speed and the tamping
action of the rammer.
2.Engine Stop Switch – Controls the starting and stopping
of the engine. Switch must be in the "ON" position when
starting the engine.
3.Choke Lever – Used when starting the engine. Normally
used in cold weather conditions. In cold weather turn the
choke lever to the fully closed position, in warm weather
set choke lever half way or completely open.
4.Fuel Shut-Off Valve – Supplies fuel from the fuel tank to
the engine. To begin fuel flow move the fuel shut-off valve
downward.
5.Oil Bath Fill Plug – Open this plug to add oil to the oil
bath reservoir
6.Drain Valve – Open this valve to remove oil from the
bellows.
7.Pre- Cleaner – Pre-cleans (first stage) dirt and other
debris from entering the engine.
8.Foot– Laminated wood with tempered steel plate for
superior shock absorption.
9.Oil Level Sight Glass – Indicates the level of oil in the oil
bath reservoir.
10. Recoil Starting Handle – Used when starting the engine.
Pull starter handle sharply and quickly, then return
starter handle to starter case before releasing.
11. Fuel Tank/Cap – Poly fuel tank to avoid rust and
corrosion, remove this cap to add gasoline.
12. Engine Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt (second stage) and
other debris from entering the engine.
13. Bellows – Reservoir for oil bath.
14. Handle – To operate rammer
firmly on both sides.
15. Muffler– Used to reduce noise and emissions.
16. Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system,
replace with engine manufactures recommended type
spark plug.
17. Nameplate – Displays information regarding the rammer.
This section is intended to assist the operator with the initial
start-up of the MT-60H/H2 Tamping Rammer. It extremely
important that this section be read carefully before attempting to
operate the rammer.
DO NOT use your rammer until this section is thoroughly
understood.

feel a slight resistance. Then pull sharply and quickly. Return
the recoil starter handle to the starter case before releasing.
Figure 8. Recoil Starter
5.When
the engine starts, move the choke lever slowly to the
"FULL OPEN" position. Warm up the engine by running at
low speed for three to five minutes, check for gas leakage or
abnormal sounds.
6.If the engine does not start after repeated attempts,
check the spark plug for excess fuel. Clean and replace
the spark plug as needed, then move the choke lever
(Figure 7) to the half open position to avoid flooding and
repeat steps 1 thru 5.
Figure 6. On Off Switch
3.Close the choke lever Figure 7, and move the throttle lever
to the "Full Open" position. Turning the choke lever 90
degrees clockwise closes the choke . In cold weather, start the
unit with choke fully closed. In warm weather or when the
engine is warm, the unit can be started with choke halfway
or completely open.
1.To start the rammer tamping action, move the throttle lever
(Figure 9) quickly from IDLE (close) to the FULL OPEN
position . DO NOT move the throttle lever slowly as this may
cause damage to the clutch or spring.

3.To stop the tamping action, move throttle lever quickly from
the FULL OPEN to IDLE position.

CAUTIONCAUTION
Make sure that the throttle lever is moved to the FULL OPEN
position. Operating the rammer at less than full speeds can
result in damage to the clutch springs or foot
2.The MT-60H/H2 Tamping rammer is designed to run at 5,500
rpm. At optimum rpm the foot hits at the rate of 675 impacts
per minute. Increasing throttle speed past factory set rpm
does not increase impacts and may damage unit. The MT60H/H2 is designed to advance while tamping. For faster
advance, pull back slightly on the handle so that rear of foot
contacts soil first.
