The Wacker Neuson Protective Hood Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 6055 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement, this part is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a proper fit and function on your DPU 6055 machine. Fitment covers multiple DPU 6055 configurations, including the DPU 6055He and DPU 6055 WC variants. Ordering by part number confirms you are getting the correct assembly for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Formed and finished to the original hood profile, so panel gaps, mounting points, and coverage area match exactly as they left the factory floor.
- Complete Assembly: — Supplied as a full Protective Hood Complete unit, meaning all integrated components of the hood are included — no separate sourcing of sub-parts required.
- Broad DPU 6055 Coverage: — Confirmed fitment across the DPU 6055, DPU 6055H, DPU 6055He, and DPU 6055 WC variants — a 60 kN, 55 cm reversible diesel vibratory plate compactor family.
- Protects Critical Engine and Drive Components: — A correctly fitted hood shields internal components from debris, compacted material, and impact damage during operation, preserving the service life of what sits beneath it.
- Impact and Debris Resistance: — Built to withstand the vibration, dust, and physical demands of active compaction work on soil and aggregate surfaces.
The protective hood on a DPU series reversible vibratory plate compactor serves as the outer enclosure that shields the engine, hydraulic, and drive components from direct exposure to debris, dirt, and impact during compaction work. On heavy-duty diesel machines like the DPU 6055 — which operate at high centrifugal force across soil and aggregate — the hood takes repeated vibration stress and physical contact throughout its service life. A cracked, broken, or missing hood leaves internal components vulnerable to damage, accelerates wear on parts beneath it, and can create a safety concern for the operator working in close proximity to the machine.
