The Wacker Neuson Knob is a genuine OEM component designed for the LTN6, LTW6K, LTW8K, and LTW20Z series light towers. As a direct OEM replacement, this knob is sourced from Wacker Neuson's authorized supply chain, ensuring it matches the original part in form and fit. This part covers an extensive range of LTN and LTW light tower configurations, including Tier 4 Final, Tier 4i, cold weather, racked, and custom variants across both 50 Hz and 60 Hz models. Confirming your machine's model number before ordering is always recommended to ensure correct application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional specifications, ensuring the knob engages and retains correctly on the intended mounting point without play or premature wear.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting interface on LTN6 and LTW series light towers, allowing straightforward installation without machining or adaptation.
- Broad LTN and LTW Series Coverage: — Fits a wide range of Wacker Neuson light tower families including LTN6C, LTN6L, LTN6K, LTN8K, LTW6K, LTW8K, LTW20Z-1, and LTW20Z-3 variants across multiple power configurations and emission tiers.
- Maintains Positive Control Feel: — A properly fitted knob ensures operators can actuate the associated control or adjustment point with confidence; a cracked, stripped, or missing knob creates difficulty in making precise adjustments in the field.
- Verified Part Number: — Order by Wacker Neuson part number 5000179049 to confirm you are receiving the correct knob for your specific light tower configuration.
A knob on a light tower typically serves as the operator interface for a control, adjustment, or locking mechanism — such as a leveling foot, a cable management point, or a panel-mounted control. It provides the grip surface that allows an operator to apply rotational force accurately and comfortably. When a knob cracks, strips, or goes missing, the underlying control becomes difficult or impossible to operate properly, which can interrupt setup and positioning of the light tower on site. Replacing a worn or damaged knob with the correct OEM part restores full, positive control of the associated function.
