trench rammer and jumping jack compactor rentals
Wacker Trench Rammer "Jumping Jack" Compactors
Suited for areas with limited space, such as trenches or foundations


This video is intended to show starting of the trench rammer.  We may not rent the specific model shown.


This is a rugger rammer designed for the compaction of cohesive, mixed and granular soils in confined areas.
  It's powered by WACKER's exclusive WM 80 engine, the only 2-cycle engine specifically designed and built for vibratory rammers and meets EPA air emission standards.  Patent-pending vented carburetor evacuates air from the fuel line for easy starting. An integrated fuel valve and gas lever also provide for simple operation and easy starting by eliminating air in the fuel line.  A unique three-stage air filtration system provides a virtually dust-free engine for longer life and improved durability. A filter minder tells the operator when the air filter needs to be changed.  The guide handle offers a highly engineered, built-in shockmount system to reduce HAV (hand-arm vibration) and improve operator comfort.   Automatic shutoff feature will shut down the unit if left idling for an extended period of time, reducing emissions and carbon build-up.  Rugged rammers designed for the compaction of cohesive, mixed and granular soils in confined areas.
