Mikasa Automobile Parts MTX-60 Manuale Utente

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.

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.

The Mikasa MTX-60 is equipped with an air cooled, four-
cycle gasoline engine. Transmission of the power takes
place by increasing the engine speed to engage the
centrifugal clutch.

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.
