The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Governor Lever designed for the DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the original design and material specifications required for proper engine speed regulation on these heavy-duty diesel-powered machines. It is a direct replacement for the original component and fits without modification to the existing throttle and governor linkage assembly. Confirm your model number before ordering to ensure a correct match.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Lever Geometry — Cast and formed to the original pivot dimensions and engagement profile, ensuring the governor linkage transfers throttle inputs accurately without slop or binding.
- Direct Throttle Linkage Replacement — Drops into the existing governor linkage mount on DPU 7060 series machines, aligning with factory pivot points and retaining hardware.
- Broad DPU 7060 Series Coverage — Confirmed fitment across the DPU 7060SC (Remote Control, 70 kN), DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Consistent Engine Speed Control — A correctly functioning governor lever maintains steady RPM across varying compaction loads, supporting even compaction passes on soil and aggregate.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Manufactured to the same specification as the original, so the governor response curve remains consistent with how the machine was calibrated at build.
The governor lever is a critical link in the engine speed control system, connecting the throttle control input to the mechanical governor that regulates fuel delivery and engine RPM. On reversible vibratory plate compactors like the DPU 7060 series, maintaining stable and responsive engine speed is essential for consistent compaction force output — especially under the variable loads encountered during heavy soil and aggregate compaction. When the governor lever is worn, bent, or damaged, the engine may hunt, surge, or fail to hold the set speed, resulting in inconsistent compaction performance and increased fuel consumption.
