Rammer Disassembly and Reassembly

rammer. Holes drilled in the piston carry oil from the bottom of the rammer to the
crankcase as the rammer operates. Oil in the ramming system must be maintained

Procedure Perform the procedure below to drain the ramming system oil.
1. Tilt the rammer backward until it is resting on the handle.
2. Place a suitable container under the drain plug and remove the drain plug (a) .
Note: It may take up to 10 minutes for the oil to drain.
3. Re-install the drain plug and torque it to 54 Nm (40 ft.lbs.).
Note: Dispose of oil in accordance with local environmental regulations.
