The Wacker Neuson Throttle Cable is a genuine OEM throttle cable designed for the DPU 4045H, DPU 4545H, DPU 5045H, DPU 5545H, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 series diesel reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this cable matches the original specification for a straight-swap installation with no guesswork on routing or end fittings. It covers an extensive range of DPU variants including the He, Heap, Hap, Hec, and US configurations, making it a go-to stocking part for fleets running multiple DPU models.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Cable Construction — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original cable length, sheath diameter, and end-fitting specification, ensuring accurate throttle travel and response on DPU-series compactors.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — End fittings and cable housing match the original routing path on DPU 4045H through DPU 6555 models, allowing straightforward reinstallation without rerouting or adapting hardware.
- Broad DPU Series Compatibility — Fits DPU 4045H, DPU 4545H, DPU 5045H, DPU 5545H, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 variants, including He, Heap, Hap, Hec, and US configurations.
- Consistent Engine Speed Control — A properly functioning throttle cable allows the operator to hold steady engine RPM under load, supporting consistent compaction force across the full pass width.
- Fuel System Safety — A stretched, frayed, or binding throttle cable can prevent the engine from returning to idle or shutting down cleanly; replacing this cable on schedule is a straightforward safeguard against uncontrolled throttle conditions.
The throttle cable on a diesel vibratory plate compactor transmits the operator's throttle input directly to the engine's fuel control mechanism, governing engine speed and, by extension, the compaction force the plate delivers. When the cable stretches, frays, or the sheath kinks, throttle response becomes sluggish or inconsistent, making it difficult to hold the engine at the correct RPM for the material being compacted. In severe cases a damaged cable can stick at an elevated throttle position, preventing the engine from returning to idle and creating a hazardous operating condition on the worksite.
