Requirements
Background Lubricating oil is distributed throughout the ramming system by the action of the
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
at the correct level to ensure the ramming system operates efficiently.

NOTICE: Do not overfill the ramming system with oil. High levels of oil can create a
hydraulic lock in the ramming system. This can result in erratic operation and
cause damage to the engine clutch, the ramming system, and the shoe.
