Description
Feel the ground shake under massive compaction force with the Wacker Neuson AS60e Bare Tool Rammer. This battery-powered rammer delivers 4046 lbs of impact force to pack deep soil lifts. A quiet electric motor eliminates exhaust fumes in deep excavations. You must purchase the compatible battery pack and charger separately.
Wacker Neuson engineers this rammer with a cast ductile iron gear transmission bolted to an eleven-inch wear-resistant steel shoe. The asynchronous electric motor pairs with high-voltage Wacker Neuson battery systems, delivering 680 percussion blows per minute. The bare unit weighs 141 lbs unboxed. Frame dimensions span 24 inches long by 14 inches wide by 41 inches high, incorporating rubber-cushioned guide handle mounts.
Key Features of Wacker Neuson AS60e
Pipeline crews buy Wacker Neuson AS60e bare rammers to expand existing cordless fleets while checking pro pricing on commercial compaction equipment. Contractors tamp heavy cohesive soils and dense clay without exceeding indoor carbon monoxide thresholds.
- Emission-free electric motor allows legal compaction inside enclosed utility trenches and basements.
- Forged eleven-inch shoe breaks cohesive clay bonds to reach maximum Proctor density.
- High-output drive system delivers 4046 lbs of compaction force on thick soil lifts.
- Push-button start eliminates hard recoil pulling on freezing cold construction mornings.
- Vibration-cushioned guide handle shields operator hands from high percussion shock waves.
- Rugged protective motor housing shrugs off impacts from dirt and trench wall cave-ins.
- Low noise motor allows trench compaction work near occupied residential neighborhoods.
- Direct drive gear linkage maintains consistent stroke height throughout deep cohesive trench backfill runs.
Percussion Output Cylinder Stroke Tolerances
Bench stress tests confirm raw compaction energy through the forged shoe assembly. The AS60e strikes with 4046 lbs of percussion force, maintaining 680 blows per minute across full battery charge cycles. Spring cylinder travel measures 2.7 inches per cycle with piston rod deflection holding under 0.007 inches TIR. Transmission casing temperatures plateau at 126 degrees Fahrenheit after three hours of continuous soil testing. Handle vibration dampers reduce hand-arm acceleration down to 2.9 meters per second squared on dense clay.
Trench Usability Maintenance Scope Boundaries
Guiding this 141-pound rammer through narrow pipe trenches feels direct, as the machine walks forward on its own percussion stroke. The single switch button works through thick leather work gloves. Do not buy this bare tool unit if your crew lacks compatible Wacker Neuson batteries, or for wide road asphalt rolling.
- Blow abrasive dirt out of battery receptacle terminals after every trench shift.
- Check rammer shoe mounting bolts with a torque wrench every twenty hours.
- Inspect sight glass oil levels in the lower ramming leg once per month.
