time of publication．Our Corporation reserves the right to change any portion of this
information without notice．
All rights，especially copying and distribution rights，are reserved．
2．EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM INFORMATION
Source of Emissions
The combustion process produces carbon monoxide，oxides of nitrogen ，and
hydrocarbons ．Control of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen is very important
because，under certain conditions．they react to form photochemical smog when
subjected to sunlight．Carbon monoxide does not react in the same way，but it is toxic．
We utilizes lean carburetor settings and other systems to reduce the emissions of
carbon monoxide，oxides of nitrogen，and hydrocarbons．
The U.S. and California Clean Air Acts
EPA and California regulations require all manufacturers to furnish written instructions
describing the operation and maintenance of emission control systems．
The following instructions and procedures must be followed in order to keep the
emissions from the engine within the emissions standards．
Tampering and Altering
Tampering with or altering the emission control system may increase emissions
beyond the egal limit．Among those acts that constitute tampering are：
●Removal or alteration of any part of the intake，fuel，or exhaust systems．
●Altering or defeating the speed-adjusting mechanism to cause the engine to operate
outside its design parameters．
Problems That May Affect Emissions
2

If you are aware of any of the following symptoms，have your engine inspected and
repaired by your servicing dealer．
●Hard starting or stalling after starting．
●Rough idle．
●Misfiring or backfiring under load．
●Afterburning(backfiring)．
●Black exhaust smoke or high fuel consumption．
Replacement Parts
The emission control systems on the engine were designed，built，and certified to
conform with EPA and California emissions regulations．We recommend the use of
genuine our parts whenever you have maintenance done ．These original-design
replacement pads are manufactured to the same standards as the original parts．So you
can be confident of their performance．The use of replacement parts that are not of the
original design and quality may impair the effectiveness of your emission control
system．
A manufacturer of an aftermarket part assumes the responsibility that the part will not
adversely affect emission performance．The manufacturer or rebuilder of the part must
certify that use of the part will not result in a failure of the engine to comply with emission
regulations．
Maintenance
Follow the maintenance schedule．Remember that this schedule is based on the
assumption that your machine will be used for its designed purpose. Sustained
high-load or high-temperature operation，or use in unusually wet or dusty conditions，
will require more frequent service．
OXYGENATED FUELS
Some conventional gasoline are being blended with alcohol or an ether
compound．These gasoline are collectively referred to as oxygenated fuels．To meet
clean air standards，some areas of the United States and Canada use oxygenated fuels
to help reduce emissions．
If you use an oxygenated fuel, be sure it is unleaded and meets the minimum octane
rating requirement．
Before using an oxygenated fuel ，try to confirm the fuel’s contents ．Some
States/Provinces require this information to be posted on the pump．
The following are EPA-approved percentages of oxygenates：
ETHANOL-(ethyl or grain alcohol) 10%by volume．You may use gasoline containing
3

up to 10% ethanol by volume．Gasoline containing ethanol may be marketed under the
name “Gasohol”．
MTBE-(methyl tertiary butyl ether) 15% by volume．You may use gasoline containing
up to 15% MTBE by volume．
METHANOL-(methyl or wood alcohol) 5% by volume ．You may use gasoline
containing up to 5% methanol by volume，as long as it contains cosolvents and
corrosion inhibitors to protect the fuel system．Gasoline containing more than 5%
methanol by volume may cause starting and/or performance problems．It may also
damage metal，rubber，and plastic parts of your fuel system．
If you notice any undesirable operating symptoms，try another service station，or
switch to another brand of gasoline．
Fuel system damage or performance problems resulting from the use of an
oxygenated fuel containing more than the percentages of oxygenates mentioned above
are not covered under warranty．

5．OPERATION
5.1 Application
Rammers are designed to compact loose soils and gravel to prevent settling and to
provide a firm，solid base for the placement of footings，concrete slabs，foundations，
and other structures．
5.2 Recommended Fuel
This engine is certified to operate on automotive unleaded gasoline．Use only fresh，
clean gasoline．Gasoline containing water or dirt will damage fuel system．
5.3 Before Starting
5.3.1 Read safety instructions at the beginning of this manual．
5.3.2 Make sure that the gas tank is full
5.3.3 Check engine oil level．
5.3.4 Place rammer on loose soil or gravel．DO NOT start rammer on hard surfaces
such as asphalt or concrete．
5.4 TO Start
See Graphic 2
Note ：After transporting the rammer horizontally, upright the rammer and allow the oil
to drain back through the engine
．
It may take up to 2 minutes for the oil level to recover
．
5.4.1 Open fuel valve (e)．
5.4.2 Turn engine switch to "ON" (d)．
5.4.3 If the engine is cold，close choke(b1)on the carburetor．
Note：Occasionally，warm engines will need to be choked．
5.4.4 With throttle in idle position (c3)，pull the starter rope (a) until the engine starts．
5.4.5 On engines equipped with the low oil shutoff switch, see section Low oil
Shutoff Switch for additional information．
Note：First time use, engines recently serviced, run out of fuel or not used for long
periods of time may need the rope to be pulled more times to move fuel to the
carburetor
．
5.4.6 Open choke (b2) on the carburetor as the engine warms up．
17

Note：A cold engine should be allowed to warm up at the idle position (c2) for
approximately one(1)minute
．
Failure to open the choke after the engine
attempts to start may cause flooding
．
CAUTION：Always open choke(b2)with throttle in idle position(c3)．Opening choke with
throttle not in idle position(c3)may result in rammer motion．

5.5 To Stop
See Graphic 2
5.5.1 Place throttle in the idle position (c3)．
5.5.2 Turn engine switch to“OFF”(d)．
5.5.3 Close fuel valve (e)．
5.6 Low Oil Shutoff Switch (if equipped)
The low oil shutoff switch is designed to prevent engine damage caused by an
insufficient amount of oil．
When starting the machine：
●if the warning light flashes quickly once ，this indicates the engine oil level is
acceptable.
●if the warning light flashes slowly，the engine will start but shut off after 10-12 seconds，
this indicates that the engine oil level is low．Add oil to the engine．See Technical Data
18

for oil quantity and type．
●if the warning light stays on continuously，the engine will start and continue to run but
the low oil shutoff switch is not functioning properly．Check the switch for proper wire
connections. If the light continues to stay on，replace the switch．
●if the warning light does not flash quickly once，and the engine starts and continues to
run，the low oil shutoff switch is not functioning properly．Check the switch for proper
wire connections and grounding．If the light still does not flash when starting the
machine，replace the switch．
5.7 Proper Operation
See Graphic 3
Keep vibratory rammer clean and dry．Avoid no-load strokes．Never allow the rammer
to run full throttle when forcing away materiaI or when lifting the equipment．
For optimal control, performance，and minimaI hand/arm vibration, grasp handle as
shown．Hand/arm vibration (HAV) has been optimized for this positioning．Reported
HAV levels are measured at position A just in front of the hand position shown in
conformance with EN 1033 and ISO 5349.
CAUTION： To prevent damage to the rammer ， do not allow the rammer to run on its side ．
If the rammer should tip on its side，place the rammer in the position shown，then shut
off the engine by turning engine switch to "OFF"．
