Fuel Lines
■ Check the fuel and oil lines regularly for damage and ensure

that there are no leaks.

■ Replace the fuel lines every two years to maintain the

performance and flexibility of the fuel lines.

Cleaning the Rammer
■ If using a high pressure spray washer, be careful not to splash

water directly on the air cleaner, carburetor, muffler, and fuel

cap. Excessive amounts of water may cause severe engine

damage.

Long Term Storage
■ Drain fuel from fuel tank, fuel line and carburetor.
■ Remove spark plug and pour a few drops of motor oil into

cylinder. Crank engine 3 to 4 times so that oil reaches all
internal parts.

■ Clean exterior of rammer with an oil-moistened cloth.
■ Store unit covered with plastic sheet in moisture free and

dust free location out of direct sunlight.

Crankcase Lubrication

crankcase bearings

after each eight (8) hours of use.

■ Use MQ HIGH TEMPERATURE GREASE, P/N GRS2 or its

equivalent.

Spark Plug
■ Remove and clean the spark plug (Figure 20), then adjust

the spark gap to 0.024 ~0.028 inch (0.6~0.7 mm). This unit
