The Wacker Neuson Lifting Cage Frame is a genuine OEM component designed for the VPA1740, VPA1750, VPX1740, VPA1750, VPA1350W, and VPA1340 series vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact specifications of the original frame used on these single-direction vibratory plates. It provides the structural interface needed to safely hoist and reposition the machine on the jobsite. If your existing lifting cage frame is damaged, cracked, or missing, replacing it with part number restores the machine's full lifting capability and keeps your crew working safely.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Structural Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original load and geometry specifications for the lifting cage frame, ensuring the weld points, mounting holes, and frame profile match the original exactly.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Engineered to mount to the plate compactor chassis using the original hardware positions, so installation follows the standard service procedure without fabrication or modification.
- Broad VPA/VPX Series Compatibility — Fits the VPA1740, VPA1750, VPX1740, VPX1750, VPA1350W, and VPA1340 single-direction vibratory plate compactors, covering a wide range of Wacker Neuson plate compactor configurations.
- Safe Machine Lifting — A correctly fitted lifting cage frame allows the plate compactor to be rigged and hoisted safely; a damaged or absent frame puts operators and equipment at risk during transport and placement.
- Lifting Safety Compliance — Using the OEM-specified lifting cage frame ensures the machine is lifted at the correct attachment points and within its rated lift geometry — critical for site safety and equipment handling protocols.
The lifting cage frame is the dedicated rigging attachment point built into the vibratory plate compactor's chassis. It allows the machine to be safely hoisted by a crane, telehandler, or lifting strap when it needs to be moved to lower levels, across obstacles, or onto transport. Without a sound lifting cage frame, the only alternative is improvised rigging, which risks damaging the machine or injuring personnel. A worn, cracked, or missing frame must be replaced before any lifting operations are carried out.
