The Wacker Neuson Throttle Lever is a genuine OEM component designed for BS50-4s, BS60-4s, BS50-4, and BS60-4 series four-stroke vibratory rammers. As a direct OEM replacement, part is manufactured to the exact specifications of the original, ensuring a correct installation with no guesswork. This throttle lever is compatible across a wide range of BS-series rammer configurations, including EU-specification models, making it a reliable choice for fleet operators and service technicians alike. Keep your rammer running at the right engine speed — sourcing the correct OEM part is the straightforward way to restore precise throttle response.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to exact original tolerances, ensuring the lever engages and pivots with the same positive feel and travel range as the factory-installed part.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Mounts directly to the throttle linkage on BS50-4s, BS60-4s, BS50-4, and BS60-4 rammers, including EU-spec variants, using the original hardware positions.
- Broad BS-Series Compatibility — Covers both BS50 and BS60 frame sizes across multiple serial number ranges and four-stroke engine configurations, reducing the number of part numbers you need to stock.
- Restored Throttle Precision — A worn or damaged throttle lever causes erratic engine speed control, reducing compaction consistency in trenches and cohesive soils. Replacing it restores accurate RPM management and steady impact rate.
- Verified Part Number — Order with confidence using Wacker Neuson part number 5000160476, cross-referenced against the BS-series rammer parts catalog for accurate fitment confirmation.
The throttle lever is the operator-facing control link between the handlebar throttle mechanism and the engine's carburetor or throttle body on a vibratory rammer. By physically moving the throttle cable or linkage, it sets engine RPM and directly controls the rammer's impact frequency — critical for achieving the correct compaction energy in trench backfill and cohesive soil applications. When the lever cracks, wears at its pivot, or loses its detent position, the operator loses reliable speed control, which leads to inconsistent compaction results and potential engine overrun.
