The Wacker Neuson Starting Crank is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU6055 and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement, the is sourced from Wacker Neuson and built to the same specification as the original part, ensuring a correct fit and consistent operation across the full range of compatible DPU6055 and DPU6555 models. Fitment covers an extensive lineup including DPU6055H, DPU6555He, DPU6555Hec, DPU6555Heh, DPU6555Hes, DPU6555Heap, and their US-market and combination variants.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engagement Geometry — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original dimensional spec, so the crank engages the engine recoil or manual start mechanism cleanly without binding or slipping.
- Drop-In Replacement for DPU6055 and DPU6555 Variants — Covers a wide range of DPU6055 and DPU6555 configurations including He, Hec, Heh, Hes, Heap, Hecsh, Hesh, and corresponding US-market models.
- Diesel-Rated Durability — Built to handle the higher manual-start resistance common on diesel-powered reversible plate compactors, where starting torque demands are greater than on gasoline units.
- Verified Part Number Match — Part number 5000095187 cross-references directly to the affected DPU model series, giving you confidence you're ordering the correct component before it ships.
- Operator Safety Consideration — A damaged or worn starting crank can slip unexpectedly during engine start attempts, creating a hand and wrist injury risk; replacing a worn crank promptly keeps the start sequence controlled and predictable.
The starting crank is the manual-start interface between the operator and the engine on diesel-powered reversible vibratory plate compactors. It engages the engine's crankshaft or recoil starter to initiate rotation, allowing combustion to begin. When the crank is cracked, bent, or worn at its engagement point, the engine becomes difficult or impossible to start manually, and operator injury risk increases if the crank disengages under load mid-rotation.
