immediately.
ALWAYS store equipment properly when it is not being
used. Equipment should be stored in a clean, dry location
out of the reach of children and unauthorized personnel.
MTX70 — 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 — MTX70 — OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #12 (02/22/12)
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.
MTX70 — 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
Dispose of hazardous waste properly.
Examples of potentially hazardous waste
are used motor oil, fuel and fuel filters.

MTX70 — GENERAL INFORMATION
Definition of Tamping Rammer
The Mikasa MTX70 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 MTX70 levels and uniformly compacts
voids between soil particles to increase dry density.
Circular motion is converted to create impact force. The
MTX70 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 MTX70 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.
Rammer Gearbox and Spring Cylinder
The Mikasa MTX70 uses an oil bath lubrication system.
Always check the oil level through the oil level sight glass at
the rear of the tamper foot.
1. Make sure that there is no damage on the bolts.
2. Make sure that there is no crack or breakage on handle.
3. Make sure that there is no fissure on the surface. If there
is any abnormality or damage, replace with new one.
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. This
handle is for manual lifting only.
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).

INITIAL SERVICING
The engine (Figure 1A) must be checked for proper lubrication and
filled with fuel prior to operation. Refer to the manufacturers Engine
manual for instructions & details of operation and servicing.
1. 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.
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.
while the engine is running or immediately after operating. NEVER
operate the engine with the muffler removed.
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
Engine components can generate extreme heat.
To prevent burns, DO NOT touch these areas

ROPE
1 . Check all nuts, bolts fasteners for tightness. Retighten as
necessary.
2. Clean any dirt from the recoil starter and foot pedestal. Wipe
the entire unit clean before operating.
3. Replace any missing or damaged Safety Operation decals.
4. Adjust height of handle. Adjust handle by loosening nuts and
moving handle to suit operation. Retighten nuts.
Initial Start-up
When starting the MTX70 Tamping Rammer perform the
following:
3. Place the choke lever to the closed position. When the
weather is cold, close the choke all the way. When it is hot,
or if the engine is hot, open the choke a little or leave it fully
open.
MTX70 — OPERATION
DO NOT press the primer pump bulb more
than four (4) times, as this will cause fuel
to flood the carburetor.
1. Slide the throttle lever from the stop to the idle position ( )

2. The MTX70 tamping rammer is designed to run at 3,800 to
4,100 rpm. At optimum rpm the foot hits at the rate between
590 ~ 695 impacts per minute. Increasing throttle speed past
factory set rpm does not increase impacts and may damage
unit. The MTX70 is designed to advance while tamping. For
faster advance, pull back slightly on the handle so that rear
