Wacker Neuson 5000201818 Adjusting Lever

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Adjusting Lever designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specifications as the original component installed at the factory, ensuring a direct fit on the DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet models. Verified fitment means no guesswork — the installs exactly where the original lever sat. Keep your heavy-duty reversible plate running at full operational capacity with the correct OEM part.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Lever Geometry — Manufactured to the exact pivot angle and engagement tolerances required for proper directional control on DPU 7060 series plates.
• Direct Drop-In Replacement — The 5000201818 matches the original mounting points and lever travel range, slotting in without rework or modification to surrounding components.
• Broad DPU 7060 Series Fitment — Confirmed for the DPU 7060SC (remote-control variant), DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet — covering the full range of this 70 kN reversible plate family.
• Directional Control Integrity — A worn or damaged adjusting lever compromises the operator's ability to shift the plate between forward and reverse travel, reducing compaction efficiency and control on the pass.
• Operator Safety Relevance — Positive, responsive directional adjustment is critical on a remote-controlled reversible plate; a failed lever can result in unintended machine movement in trench or confined-area applications.

The adjusting lever on a reversible vibratory plate compactor controls the transition between forward and reverse travel by repositioning the exciter mechanism or drive linkage within the plate's propulsion system. On heavy-duty DPU 7060 series machines — which generate up to 70 kN of compaction force — this lever takes on significant mechanical load every time the operator changes direction. When the lever wears, bends, or fails, the plate loses the ability to change direction cleanly, leaving operators with a machine stuck in one travel mode or with sluggish, unpredictable directional response. Replacing a damaged adjusting lever promptly with the correct OEM part restores full forward and reverse control and keeps the compactor operating as intended.
