The Wacker Neuson Transmission Control Cable is a genuine OEM component designed for the BFS 1318AS and BFS 2020AS self-propelled walk-behind floor saws. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this cable is manufactured to the exact specifications of the original part it replaces, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation in your saw's drive control system. If your BFS floor saw is exhibiting sluggish propulsion response, inconsistent drive engagement, or no self-propel movement at all, a worn or stretched transmission control cable is a common cause — and is the factory-correct solution.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Cable Integrity — Manufactured to the original cable length, sheath diameter, and end-fitting specification, so actuation travel and tension match the factory design exactly.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to connect to the existing transmission control lever and drive assembly without modification to cable routing or hardware.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for the BFS 1318AS and BFS 2020AS self-propelled walk-behind floor saws.
- Consistent Drive Engagement — A properly tensioned transmission control cable delivers smooth, predictable propulsion response, letting the operator maintain steady cutting speed across concrete slabs and asphalt surfaces.
- Operator Control and Safety — The transmission control cable is a direct link between the operator and the drive system; a frayed or seized cable can cause uncontrolled movement or loss of propulsion on grade, making timely replacement essential.
The transmission control cable connects the operator's drive-engagement lever to the saw's propulsion transmission, translating hand input into controlled forward movement of the machine. When the cable is in good condition, the operator has smooth, responsive control over cutting speed and machine travel. As the cable stretches, frays, or develops kinks in the sheath, response becomes sloppy or fails entirely — the saw may lose self-propel function, making it difficult to maintain a straight, consistent cut line and increasing operator fatigue on longer cuts.
