used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location
out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.
SAFETY INFORMATION
k
ENGINE SAFETY
DANGER
The engine fuel exhaust gases contain poisonous carbon
monoxide. This gas is colorless and odorless, and can
cause death if inhaled.
The engine of this equipment
requires an adequate free flow
of cooling air. NEVER operate
this equipment in any enclosed
or narrow area where free flow
of the air is restricted. If the air
flow is restricted it will cause
injury to people and property
and serious damage to the
equipment or engine.
WARNING
DO NOT place hands or fingers inside engine
compartment when engine is running.
NEVER operate the engine with heat shields or
guards removed.
DO NOT remove the engine oil drain plug
while the engine is hot. Hot oil will gush
out of the oil tank and severely scald any
persons in the general area of the rammer.
CAUTION
FUEL SAFETY
DANGER
DO NOT add fuel to equipment if it is placed inside truc
bed with plastic liner. Possibility exists of explosion or
fire due to static electricity.
DO NOT
fluids. Fuel is extremely flammable and its vapors can
cause an explosion if ignited.
ALWAYS refuel in a well-ventilated area, away from
sparks and open flames.
ALWAYS use extreme caution when working with
flammable liquids.
start the engine near spilled fuel or combustible
NEVER touch the hot exhaust manifold,
muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool
before servicing equipment.
NOTICE
NEVER run engine without an air filter or with a dirty air
filter. Severe engine damage may occur. Service air filter
frequently to prevent engine malfunction.
NEVER tamper with the factory settings
of the engine or engine governor. Damage
to the engine or equipment can result
if operating in speed ranges above the
maximum allowable.
PAGE 8 — MTX-60 RAMMER • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #6 (08/23/11)
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 appropriate containers, in well-ventilated
areas and away from sparks and flames.
NEVER use fuel as a cleaning agent.
DO NOT smoke around or near the
equipment. Fire or explosion could result
from fuel vapors or if fuel is spilled on a
hot engine.
TRANSPORTING SAFETY
CAUTION
NEVER allow any person or animal to stand underneath
the equipment while lifting.
NOTICE
Before lifting, make sure that the equipment parts (hook
and vibration insulator) are not damaged and screws are
not loose or missing.
Always make sure crane or lifting device has been
properly secured to the lifting bail (hook) of the
equipment.
ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting.
NEVER lift the equipment while the engine is running.
Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel cock to
prevent fuel from spilling.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Use adequate lifting cable (wire or rope) of sufficient
strength.
Use one point suspension hook and lift straight
upwards.
DO NOT lift machine to unnecessary heights.
ALWAYS tie down equipment during transport by
securing the equipment with rope.
Never allow any person or animal to stand underneath the
equipment while lifting.
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY
NOTICE

GENERAL INFORMATION
DEFINITION OF TAMPING RAMMER
The Mikasa MTX-60 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.
1. Make sure that there is no damage on the bolts.
The impact force of the MTX-60 levels and uniformly
compacts voids between soil particles to increase dry
density.
Circular motion is converted to create impact force. The
MTX-60 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 MTX-60 is equipped with an air cooled, fourcycle gasoline engine. Transmission of the power takes
place by increasing the engine speed to engage the
centrifugal clutch.
2. Make sure that there is no crack or breakage on
3. Make sure that there is no fissure on the surface. If
For operation:
This handle is to be used to lift up the shoe part of the
machine with the body laid down on the ground or truck
bed.
1. Use proper lifting techniques to avoid back injury.
CAUTION — Handle Operation
Before starting operation check the
lifting handle to:
handle.
there is any abnormality or damage, replace with
new one.
This handle is for manual lifting only.
RAMMER GEARBOX AND SPRING CYLINDER
The Mikasa MTX-60 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 MTX-60 Tamping Rammer identify and
understand the function of the controls.
2. Do not use this handle as a rammer lift point. Use
the lifting point on the top of the machine.
3. Do not move the rammer with the lifting handle and
the front rollers more than 16 feet (5 meters).

BASIC ENGINE
The engine (Figure 2) must be checked for proper lubrication and filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the
engine manufacturer's manual for detailed operation and
service information.
1. Choke Lever – Normally used in starting the engine
in cold weather conditions. In cold weather, turn the
choke lever to the fully closed position. In warm
weather, set the choke lever halfway or completely
open.
2. Spark Plug – Provides spark to the ignition system.
Set spark plug gap to 0.024 - 0.028 inch (0.6 - 0.7 mm).
Clean spark plug once a week.
3. Recoil Starter (pull rope) – Manual-starting method.
Pull the starter grip until resistance is felt, then pull
briskly and smoothly.
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.
4. Muffler – Used to reduce noise and emissions.
5. Dipstick/Oil Filler Cap – Remove this cap to
determine if the engine oil is low. Add oil through this
filler port as recommended in Table 3.
6. Oil Drain Plug – Remove this plug to remove oil from
the engine's crankcase.
WARNING — Hot Engine
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.

OPERATION
This section is intended to assist the operator with the ini-
ENGINE
tial start-up of the MTX-60 Tamping Rammer. It is extremely
important that this section be read carefully before attempting to operate the rammer.
1. Fill the fuel tank (Figure 3) with unleaded gasoline. At
the same time, check the engine oil and make it a habit
to replenish it often (Figure 4).
DO NOT use your rammer until this section is thoroughly
understood.
CAUTION — Understand Operation
Failure to understand the operation of the Tamping
Rammer could result in severe damage to the unit or
personal injury.

2. If oil is not visible, add 10W-30 SE, SF or higher grade
motor oil into the oil fill plug opening (Figure 2). The
bath contains approximately 1.7 pints (800 cc.)
The oil level should be kept at the half
way point of the sight glass.

2. Low levels of oil may result in engine seizure due to
high levels of consumption during operations.
3. Check the engine oil level and if the engine oil level is
low, it should be refilled. Use the proper motor oil as
suggested in the Table 3 below.
