MT-86D2 TAMPING RAMMER — GENERAL INFORMATION
Definition of Tamping Rammer
The Mikasa MT-86D2 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-86D2 levels and uniformly compacts
voids between soil particles to increase dry density.
Circular motion is converted to create impact force. The MT-86D2
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-86D2 Tamping Rammer is equipped with Yanmar
diesel 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-86D2 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-86D2 Tamping Rammer, identify and
understand the function of the controls.

The engine must be checked for proper lubrication and filled
with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the manufacturer’s engine
manual for instructions and details of operation and servicing.
Each component is described below:

engine (Figure 2).
6.Recoil Starter– Manual-starting method. Pull the starter
grip until resistance is felt, then pull briskly and smoothly.
7.Oil Filler Cap / Dipstick – Remove this cap to add oil to the
engine crankcase. Read dipstick to determine if oil level is
low. DO NOT over fill.
NOTE
CAUTION - Fueling The Engine
Adding fuel to the tank should be done only
when the engine is stopped and has had an
opportunity to cool down. In the event of a fuel
spill, DO NOT attempt to start the engine until
the fuel residue has been completely wiped
up, and the area surrounding the engine is dry.
2.Fuel Tank – Capacity is 3.5 quarts (3.31 liters) of diesel
fuel.
3.Air Cleaner – Prevents dirt and other debris from entering
the fuel system. Remove wing-nut on top of air filter
cannister to gain access to filter element.
4.Muffler – Used to reduce noise and emissions.
5.Recoil Starting Handle (pull rope) – Type of engine
starting method.
8.Oil Drain Plug – Unscrew plug to drain oil from engine
crankcase. Dispose of oil in a safe manner.
9.Decompression Lever– Press down before starting
engine. To prevent damage to engine, DO NOT use for any
other purpose.
CAUTION - Burn Hazard
Engine components can generate extreme heat.
To prevent burns, DO NOT touch these areas
while the engine is running or immediately after
operating. NEVER operate the engine with the
muffler removed.
10.Fuel Cock– Controls the flow of diesel fuel to the carburetor.
Must be in the ON position when starting and running the
engine.
Operating the engine without
an air filter, with a damaged
air filter, or a filter in need of
replacement will allow dirt to
enter the engine, causing
rapid engine wear.

MT-86D2 TAMPING RAMMER — INITIAL START-UP
This section is intended to assist the operator with the initial
start-up of the MT-86D2 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.

CAUTION
CAUTICAUTI
Failure to understand the operation of
the MT-76D2Tamping Rammer could
result in severe damage to the rammer
or cause personal injury.
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).
Engine
1.Fill the fuel tank with automobile diesel fuel (See Figure 3).
Read Manual
INSPECTION
1.Check all nuts, bolts and fasteners for tightness. Retighten
as necessary.
2.Clean dirt from the recoil starter and foot. Wipe entire unit
clean before operating.
3.Replace any missing or damaged Safety/Operation decals.
Figure 4. Oil Level
Figure 3. Fuel Tank
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). See Figure 4.

MT-86D2 TAMPING RAMMER — INITIAL START-UP
4. Starting
1.Move the throttle lever to IDLE position. (See Figure 5).
Throttle lever is used only at three (STOP, IDLE &
OPERATION) positions. When moving the lever from stop
to idle position, press 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.
3.Press the decompression lever to release decompression.
The decompression lever will return automatically when
the recoil starter is pulled. (See Figure 7).
Figure 7. Decrompression Lever
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.
Figure 5. Throttle Lever
2.Grip the recoil starter handle and pull it until you feel a
slight resistance. (See Figure 6).
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.

Operation
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.
CAUTICAUTI
CAUTION
CAUTICAUTI
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.
2.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.
3.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.
4.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.
Stopping the Engine
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. See Figure 8.
