1.2 Machine Description and Intended Use
This machine is a vibratory rammer. The Wacker Neuson Rammer
consists of a gasoline or diesel engine, a clutch, a fuel tank, a spring-
loaded ramming system, a ramming shoe, and a handle. The engine
transmits power through the ramming system and ramming shoe,
generating percussive impact force to compact soil. The operator
guides and controls the machine from behind using the handle.
This machine is intended to be used for compacting cohesive, mixed,
and granular soils in confined areas.
This machine has been designed and built strictly for the intended use
described above. Using the machine for any other purpose could
permanently damage the machine or seriously injure the operator or
other persons in the area. Machine damage caused by misuse is not
covered under warranty.
The following are some examples of misuse:
• Using the machine as a ladder, support, or work surface
• Using the machine to carry or transport passengers or equipment
• Using the machine as a hammer or for other demolition work
