The Mikasa MT-86D 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-86D levels and uniformly compacts
voids between soil particles to increase dry density.
Circular motion is converted to create impact force. The MT-86D
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 Mikasa MT-86D 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 Mikasa MT-86D 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-86D Tamping Rammer, identify and
understand the function of the controls, see Figure 1 on page 11.
Figure A shows the location of the controls and components
for the MT-86D Tamping Rammer. The functions of each
control is described below:
1.Fuel Tank/Cap – Remove this cap to add diesel fuel.
Use high grade automotive diesel fuel only.
2.Throttle Lever – Controls engine speed and the tamping
action of the rammer.
3.Engine Oil Dipstick – Indicates the level of the engine oil
Use CC class or higer grade motor oil.
4.Oil filter – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering the
engine.
5.Oil Bath Fill Plug – Open this plug to add oil to the oil
bath reservoir.
6.Oil Level Sight Glass – Indicates the level of oil in the oil
bath reservoir.
7.Drain Valve – Open this valve to remove oil from the
bellows.
8.Foot– Laminated wood with tempered steel plate for
superior shock absorption.
9.Muffler– Used to reduce noise and emissions.
10. Engine Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris
from entering the engine.
11. Decompression Lever – Use in the starting of the
engine. Press lever to engage. After engine starts lever
will return to original position.
12. Fuel Filter – Located inside fuel tank. Prevents dirt and
debris from entering fuel system.
13. Recoil Starting Handle – Used when starting the engine.
Pull starter handle sharply and quickly, then return
starter handle to starter case before releasing.
14. Handle – To operate rammer
firmly on both sides.
The Mikasa MT-86D diesel rammer is a powerful compacting
tool capable of applying tremendous force in consecutive
impacts to a soil surface. The impact force of the MT-86D levels
and uniformly compacts voids between soil particles to increase
dry density. Its applications include soil compacting for road,
embankment and reservoirs as well as backfilling for gas
pipelines, water pipelines and cable installation work.
2. Construction of Tamping Rammer
The rammer is equipped with an air-cooled, four-stroke diesel
engine. Transmission of the power takes place by increasing
engine speed to engage a centrifugal clutch. Circular motion is
converted into vertical motion to create impact force.
3-2. Preparation Inspection:
Rammer Gearbox and Spring Cylinder. This unit uses an oil
bath lubrication system. Check oil level through oil level sight
glass at rear of tamper foot. If oil is not visible, add #10W-30
motor oil. Oil bath contains approx. 1.7 pt. (800cc) for MT-86D.
3-3. Engine:
3-5. Clean dirt from the recoil starter and foot. Wipe entire unit
clean before operating.
3-6. Replace any missing or damaged Safety/Operation decals.
Fig. 2
Use only automobile diesel fuel (Fig. 1). Check the engine oil
before starting operation and fill the oil regularly (Fig. 2). For
checking the oil level, move the engine to vertical position and
check that the oil is level with the oil inlet (about 700cc).
3-4. Check all nuts, bolts and fasteners for tightness. Retighten
as necessary.
4-1. Move the throttle lever to IDLE position. (Fig. 3)
Throttle lever is used only at three (STOP, IDLE
& OPERATION) positions. When moving the
lever from stop to idle position, depress button
on lever at same time it is moved.
In cold weather, the engine should be started
at operating position or between the idle and
operation position of the throttle lever. Use
caution as higher engine RPM may engage
clutch, when engine starts. Return throttle lever
from starting position to idle position when
engine starts.
4-2. Grip the recoil starter handle and pull it until you feel a
slight resistance. (Fig. 4)
MT-86D — OPERATION
4-3. Press the decompression lever to release decompression.
The decompression lever will return automatically when the
recoil starter is pulled. (Fig. 5)
4-4. Return the recoil starter, and pull the handle sharply and
quickly. Warm up the engine by running at low speed for three
to five minutes, while checking for fuel leakage or abnormal
sounds.
Do not pull the starter rope all the way to the
end and do not let the starter rope snap back
as damage may result.
5-1. Move the throttle lever quickly from the IDLE to OPERATION
position to start tamping action. DO NOT move the throttle lever
slowly as this may cause damage to the clutch or spring box.
5-2. The tamping rammer is designed to tamp the ground 700
times per minute at an engine speed of 3,300 rpm. Increasing
the engine speed above the recommended rpm will not increase
the rammer effectiveness. Impact will actually decrease because
a resonance is created rather than a tamping effect, and damage
to the unit can result.
5-3. The rammer can be warmed by quickly moving the throttle
lever from the OPERATION to the IDLE position several times
until the rammer operates smoothly.
5-4. The tamping rammer is designed to travel forward while
tamping. To increase travel speed, pull back slightly on the
handle so that the rear of the foot contacts the soil first.
5-5. To stop tamping, quickly move the throttle lever from the
OPERATION to IDLE position. Do not move the lever slowly as
irregular action and damage may result.
MT-86D — OPERATION
Fig. 6
6. Stopping the Engine
6-1. Move throttle lever quickly from idle to STOP while pressing
the throttle lever button. Run the engine for three minutes at idle
speed to allow for proper cool down. Following the above
procedures will prevent improper cylinder lubrication caused
by a overheated engine. (Fig. 6)
7. Service
CAUTION:
Flammable Liquid: When refueling, stop engine and allow it
to cool.. Do no smoke or allow work to be
performed in the immediate area. Fire or
explosion could result from flames or sparks,
or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine.
Moving Parts: Shut down the engine before
performing service or maintenance functions.
Contact with moving parts can cause serious injury.
High Temperatures: Allow machine and engine to cool before
performing service or maintenance functions. Contact with hot
components can cause serious burns.
Thoroughly remove dirt and oil from the engine and control
area.
■
Clean or replaces air cleaner as necessary.
■
Check and retighten all fasteners as necessary.
■
Check spring box and bellows for oil leaks. Repair as
needed.
■
Remove element from pre-cleaner at the top of crankcase
(body side) and clean it by air.
7-2. WEEKLY (every 50 hours)
■
Remove the fuel filter cap and inspect for dirt in the fuel
tank. (Fig. 7)
7-3. Replacement of Lubricant (BODY)
■
Remove the drain plug at the rear of tamper foot and drain
the dirty oil. Refill with clean oil to the middle of the sight
glass. Oil bath contains approx. 1.7 pt. (800 cc) for MT-86D.
