The Wacker Neuson 130881 Lifting Handle Kit is a genuine OEM component designed for VP1340, VP1550, VP2050, and AP1550 series single-direction vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this kit delivers an exact, verified fit across a broad range of VP and AP plate models — no guesswork on compatibility. It is the same handle assembly specified at the factory, ensuring correct mounting geometry and load-rated hardware. Whether you are replacing a damaged handle or completing a full machine refurbishment, part number 130881 restores safe, confident transport and positioning of your plate compactor.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Load-rated hardware and correctly profiled handle components matched to Wacker Neuson's original specifications for the VP and AP plate family.
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — Mounts to the existing handle bracket positions on covered VP1340, VP1550, VP2050, and AP1550 models without rework or fabrication.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits VP1340, VP1550, and VP2050 series plates across standard, wheeled, asphalt, and remote variants, as well as AP1550 battery-powered plate models.
- Restores Safe Machine Handling — A worn, cracked, or missing lifting handle creates a tipping and injury risk when moving the plate between work areas; this kit returns the machine to full safe-handling condition.
- Complete Kit Supply — Supplied as a kit with all required components, so you have everything needed to complete the repair in a single order.
The lifting handle on a vibratory plate compactor is the primary grab point used to maneuver, transport, and position the machine. On VP and AP series plates, it bears the full weight of the unit during loading, unloading, and site moves, so structural integrity is critical. When the handle assembly cracks, bends, or loses a fastener, the machine becomes unsafe to lift and difficult to control on ramps or confined work areas — replacing it promptly with a genuine Wacker Neuson kit like the 130881 keeps the machine safe and operational.
