The Wacker Neuson Fender Step is a genuine OEM component designed for E5000 and CH5000 series ground heaters, including gas burner, diesel burner, and generator-equipped configurations. As a factory-sourced part, matches the original in material grade, mounting geometry, and load rating — no guesswork on fit. Compatible across the E5000 Ground Heater lineup as well as the CH5000 Cross Heater with oil burner and generator variants, this step is the correct replacement when the original is damaged, worn, or missing. Order with confidence knowing you are getting the exact Wacker Neuson part engineered for these machines.
Key Features
- OEM Material and Load Rating — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this fender step meets the original structural and surface specifications for safe step-on access under demanding job conditions.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Matches original mounting points on the E5000 and CH5000 fender panels, reinstalling the same way the factory step was fitted — no reworking of brackets or hardware.
- Broad E5000 and CH5000 Coverage — Fits gas burner, diesel burner, and 12 kW generator-equipped E5000 Ground Heaters, plus CH5000 Cross Heater models with oil burner and generator configurations.
- Maintains Safe Machine Access — A damaged or missing fender step forces operators to improvise footing when accessing the unit, increasing the risk of slips. Replacing it promptly restores a proper, stable step surface.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Part number 5000171359 is pulled from the official Wacker Neuson parts program, ensuring the component you receive is identical to what left the factory.
The fender step on E5000 and CH5000 ground heaters provides a secure foothold for operators accessing the top of the unit for service, fueling, or adjustment. Because ground heaters are often set up on uneven or icy terrain, the integrity of this step is directly tied to operator safety — a cracked, bent, or detached step eliminates that safe contact point. Replacing a worn or broken fender step with the correct OEM part restores the original footing surface and ensures the mounting hardware seats properly against the fender panel.
