The Multiquip 956100070 Throttle Wire is a genuine OEM component designed for MVH-series reversible plate compactors, including the MVH308GH, MVH408GH, MVH508GH, MVH308DZ, and MVH408DZ. As a direct OEM replacement, this throttle wire is sourced from Multiquip to ensure correct cable length, end fittings, and routing compatibility with your compactor's throttle linkage. Keeping the correct throttle wire in service is essential for maintaining proper engine speed control on heavy-duty reversible plates where consistent compaction output depends on precise throttle response.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Cable Spec — Manufactured to Multiquip's exact cable length, housing diameter, and end-fitting specification, ensuring the wire seats and tensions correctly in the throttle linkage without adjustment.
- Direct-Fit for MVH-Series Reversible Plates — Confirmed fitment for MVH308GH, MVH408GH, MVH508GH, MVH308DZ, and MVH408DZ; routes and connects the same way as the original wire it replaces.
- Engine Speed Accuracy — A correctly tensioned throttle wire allows the operator to hold a steady engine RPM through each compaction pass, supporting consistent plate force and predictable compaction depth.
- Prevents Throttle Drift and Sticking — A worn or frayed throttle wire can cause erratic engine speed, unintended RPM surges, or a stuck throttle — replacing it promptly restores predictable control.
- Genuine OEM Part Number 956100070 — Ordering by the confirmed Multiquip part number 956100070 eliminates compatibility guesswork and ensures you receive the correct wire for your specific MVH compactor model.
The throttle wire connects the operator's throttle control lever to the engine's carburetor or throttle body, transmitting cable tension to increase or decrease engine speed on demand. On a reversible plate compactor like the MVH series, stable engine speed directly affects vibration frequency and compaction force — if the wire stretches, frays, or breaks, the operator loses the ability to set or hold a consistent RPM, which can lead to uneven compaction results or an engine that won't respond to throttle input. Replacing a damaged throttle wire promptly restores full control and keeps the compactor performing within its intended operating range.
