The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Choke Control Lever designed for the RD12A-90 tandem roller series and CRT36-24A ride-on concrete trowel series. As a direct OEM replacement, this lever is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring correct fit and operation across all listed configurations — including standard, foldable ROPS, high-speed, and wheel kit variants. Sourced directly through authorized Wacker Neuson supply channels, part number gives you confidence that you are installing the correct component the first time.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Choke Engagement Accuracy — Manufactured to exact Wacker Neuson specifications, ensuring the choke plate moves to the correct position for reliable cold-start fuel enrichment every time.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original lever geometry and mounting points, allowing straightforward installation without reworking the control linkage.
- Broad RD12A-90 and CRT36-24A Coverage — A single part number covers multiple machine configurations across the RD12A-90 tandem roller family and the 36-inch CRT36-24A ride-on trowel lineup, including high-speed and wheel kit variants.
- Sustained Cold-Start Performance — A worn or broken choke lever prevents proper fuel-air mixture enrichment at startup, causing hard starts and rough running; replacing it restores clean engine ignition.
- OEM Part Number Traceability — Part number 5000160705 is verifiable against Wacker Neuson parts documentation, so you can confirm fitment before ordering.
The choke control lever is the mechanical link between the operator's choke control input and the carburetor's choke plate. When engaged, it restricts incoming airflow to enrich the fuel-air mixture, which is essential for starting a cold engine reliably. If the lever is cracked, bent, or broken, the choke plate may not close fully or may stick in the closed position — leading to hard starts, rough idling, or flooding. Replacing a damaged lever promptly restores proper engine start-up behavior and protects the carburetor from running issues caused by an incorrect mixture.
