Key Features
- OEM Electrical Accuracy — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this switch meets the original circuit rating and contact specification for the BS-series rammer, ensuring correct on/off function without guesswork.
- Direct Connector Match — Designed to plug into the existing wiring harness of the BS45Y, BS52Y, BS60Y, and BS65Y with no splicing, rewiring, or adapter needed.
- Broad BS-Series Fitment — Covers a wide range of machine numbers across the BS45Y, BS52Y, BS60Y, and BS65Y gasoline rammer families, consolidating one part across multiple units in your fleet.
- Restores Reliable Engine Control — A worn or failed switch can prevent the rammer from shutting down properly or starting at all; replacing it with part 5000079975 restores full operator control of the engine.
- Safety-Critical Function — The ignition/kill switch is a primary safety control on a vibratory rammer; using the correct OEM replacement ensures the machine responds predictably to operator input in the field.
The switch on a gasoline vibratory rammer serves as the primary electrical control for starting and stopping the engine. It completes or breaks the ignition circuit, allowing the operator to shut the machine down quickly and safely when needed. When this switch becomes corroded, worn, or fails internally, the engine may become difficult to stop or may not start at all — both of which create serious safety and operational concerns on the worksite.
