The Wacker Neuson Lever is a genuine OEM component designed for the DS70 and DS720 diesel vibratory rammer series, DPU 4045Y reversible vibratory plate compactors, and select VP/VPY diesel vibratory plate models. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this lever is manufactured to the exact tolerances and material specifications of the original part. It is a direct-fit replacement that installs exactly like the factory component, keeping your machine operating as intended. Confirmed fitment spans a wide range of DS70, DS720, DPU 4045Y, VPY1740, VPY1750, and VP2050Y machine configurations.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original dimensional and material specifications, ensuring the lever engages and pivots with the same travel and resistance as the part it replaces.
- Direct-Fit Replacement: — Matches the original mounting points and geometry on DS70, DS720, DPU 4045Y, VPY, and VP2050Y machines — no reworking of surrounding hardware needed.
- Broad Fitment Coverage: — Compatible with DS70 and DS720 diesel rammers (11 in and 13 in shoe variants), DPU 4045Y / DPU 4045YE reversible plates, and VPY1740, VPY1750, and VP2050Y diesel vibratory plates.
- Operational Control Integrity: — A correctly functioning lever maintains precise operator control over the machine. A worn or damaged lever can introduce slop, misalignment, or loss of function in the linkage it actuates, affecting machine responsiveness.
- Verified OEM Part Number: — Part number 5000073718 is the Wacker Neuson factory-assigned reference, giving you confidence you are ordering the correct component for your specific machine configuration.
A lever in compaction equipment serves as a mechanical linkage component that translates operator input or internal machine movement into a controlled action — whether actuating a fuel control, engaging a mechanism, or managing operational flow within the machine's system. When a lever wears, bends, or breaks, the function it controls becomes unreliable or inoperable, which can halt productivity on the jobsite. Replacing a damaged lever with a correctly specified OEM part restores full mechanical precision to the linkage and ensures that the connected system responds accurately to operator input.
