Rammer
Operation
Continued from the previous page.
Adjusting the
ramming
stroke
Perform the procedure below to adjust the ramming stroke.
1. Remove the adjusting tool (b) from the housing cover. Open the housing cover.
2. Verify that the arrow (d) at the center of the locking lever is pointing up.
To balance the spring system, stand behind the rammer and use the guide handle
to rock the machine back and forth until you feel the spring system relax. The
arrow should now be facing up.
3. Steady the rammer by holding the guide handle. Insert the adjusting tool (b) into
the bore (c). Make sure it is fully seated and will not slip out. Using the adjusting
tool for leverage, push the locking lever straight down until it is completely
disengaged. (Refer to Operation 1 in the illustration.)
4. Using the adjusting tool, rotate the locking lever until the center arrow points to
the desired stroke setting (Operation 2).
Note: There are two positions for stroke settings 2 and 3. Either position can be
selected—the result will be the same.
This procedure continues on the next page.
