Technical description Technical description The hydraulic ram unit is a machine for ramming steel profiles or posts into terrain, even under severe conditions. Areas of use include guardrail supports along streets, frames for solar energy facilities, wood profile palisades, supports for earthen slopes and water bank straighteners.
Technical description Chassis The fully-hydraulic ram unit has a stable crawler chassis with a slewing ring and rubber-coated chain. A Hatz diesel motor is installed as a drive motor. The chassis supports all machine assemblies. A drive gear of the chassis moves the chain links forward in the direction of travel.
Technical description When the locking and positioning lever is moved by 90° (lever position is vertical), the lock is released and the machine can be manually rotated on the chassis until it rests against a stop. When it is rotated to another position (such as the working position), the lever must be moved downward and clamped in this position.
Technical description Fig. 6: Drive motor Drive motor Tool box for battery and tool kit Oil fill nozzle and oil level dipstick Exhaust gas muffler Fuel tank The drive motor must be filled with motor oil before initial start-up. The holding capacity is 4 l - 8 l, depending on the type.
Technical description The drive motor is started using an electric starter. The speed adjustment lever (gas lever) is located right next to the ignition switch. Fig. 8: Electric starter and speed adjustment lever The ignition switch with key switch for the electric starter has 3 switch positions “0, I, II”. When the key is rotated to the “I”...
Technical description A fuel tank with a holding capacity of 180 l is installed to supply diesel fuel. All diesel fuels are suitable, provided that they meet the minimum requirements of the following specifications. EN 590 BS 2869 A1 / A2 ...
Page 29
Technical description DANGER Warning of hot surfaces! During longer operating durations, various components become very hot, such as the hydraulic tank, hydraulic hoses (sometimes over 80 °C). Direct contact should be avoided until the unit cools down completely. DANGER Motor damages due to low-quality fuel! Use of fuel that does not meet the specifications above can lead to motor damage.
Technical description Hydraulic aggregate The purpose of the hydraulic aggregate is to provide the necessary fluid pressure for operating the hydraulic cylinders of the mast (carriage) and the hydraulic hammer. The hydraulic aggregate consists of a gear pump and a hydraulic tank. The gear pump is attached to the drive motor.
Technical description Fig. 13: Vent filter with contamination display The visual fill level display mounted to the side wall of the tank shows the operator of the machine the current hydraulic fluid level in the tank. The two markings on the sight glass indicate the maximum and the minimum fill level.
Technical description Fig. 15: Cooling package The medium to be cooled (hydraulic fluid) flows through the profiles of the cooling package. The cooling air flows through the lamella perpendicular to the cooling package. The medium dissipates heat to the cooler environment and is blown away. Fig.
Technical description Mast (carriage) The mast (carriage) is a stable steel structure. Pulleys are mounted at both ends. The drive chains (upper and lower) are guided on the pulleys. At one end, the drive chains are fastened to the hydraulic hammer sled and at the other end to a chain holder. The chain attachments at the sled are spring-loaded.
Technical description Hydraulic hammer The hydraulic hammer has a sled to which it is attached. The rolls of the sled run frictionlessly in a guide of the mast. The drive chains are fastened at both ends of the sled. They move the entire hydraulic hammer up and down depending on the motion of the hydraulic cylinder.
Technical description Control console The control console is the workplace for the operator of the machine. All movements of the entire machine can be controlled from here. By actuating the individual shift levers, the following functions can be executed: Fig. 19: Control console (optional) Pos.

Technical description DANGER Danger due to uncontrolled turn-on! Uncontrolled turn-on can lead to serious personal injury. The following must be adhered to: Prior to turning the machine back on, all faults must be remedied, all safety equipment must be installed and functional. ...
Technical description DANGER Environmental hazard! If batteries and battery acids are handled incorrectly, serious damages to the environment can occur. The following must be adhered to: Proper disposal of unusable batteries must be done according to the battery ordinance. ...
Technical description 4.7.3 Electrical switch box The machine has an electrical cabinet (optional). It is mounted above the control console of the hydraulic machine controls. All the control elements, machine protections and main machine assemblies are installed in the electrical cabinet. All terminal and connecting elements are also kept there.
Transport Transport General transport instructions For transport to the set-up location, VDI 2700 “Process Instructions for Securing Loads for Road Traffic” must be followed. A vehicle must be prepared. Lashing straps must also be provided. The loader and the driver of the vehicle are responsible for properly loading and securing the machine for transport on a vehicle.

Operating the machine Operating the machine 7.1.1 General instructions DANGER Risk of accidents when turning on the machine! Any damages found must be reported before turning on the machine. The machine is only ready to operate after all defects are remedied. DANGER Risk of accidents when turning on the machine! Actuating control devices causes a mechanical movement at the machine.
Operating the machine Optionally, the corresponding distance can be established in the automatic self- regulation system. Ramming position has been reached. Move the hydraulic hammer upward using the control lever until the profile can be inserted into the ram head. Place the profile into the post guide and then align it, then move the hydraulic hammer downward until the profile is pressed into the ground.
Page 49
Operating the machine The profile is placed under the hydraulic hammer. To start the ramming process, the green button on the control panel of the electrical cabinet (optional) is pressed. The machine automatically turns off the ramming process when the height setting is reached.
