The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Protective Frame designed for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly through Wacker Neuson's authorized parts program, this frame matches the original factory component in material, geometry, and mounting configuration. It fits both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants, making it the correct choice for either machine configuration.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Structural Integrity — Manufactured to the same material and dimensional spec as the original, ensuring the frame provides the same level of impact protection as when the machine left the factory.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Mounts to the existing frame attachment points on the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC without modification, restoring the machine's protective envelope quickly.
- Broad DPU 7060 Family Coverage — Compatible with both the standard DPU 7060 (70 kN, 60 cm/24 in) and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC, covering the full model range in this compactor series.
- Shields Critical Components — The protective frame guards the engine, control components, and exciter unit from impact damage during transport, tight-trench operation, and on-site handling — preserving the machine's service life.
- Verified OEM Part Number — Part number 5000102171 is the exact Wacker Neuson-assigned reference for this frame, eliminating guesswork when ordering a like-for-like replacement.
The protective frame on a reversible vibratory plate compactor serves as the machine's primary structural guard, surrounding and shielding the engine housing, hydraulic components, and operator controls from knocks, drops, and impact during heavy-duty compaction work. On diesel-powered reversible plates like the DPU 7060 series, which operate in demanding trench and aggregate-compaction environments, the frame takes the brunt of incidental contact with trench walls, concrete forms, and rough terrain. When the frame becomes bent, cracked, or broken, unprotected components are exposed to damage that can quickly escalate into costly repairs — replacing it promptly keeps the machine structurally sound and the surrounding components protected.
