The Wacker Neuson Protective Hood Left Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70 and DPU 100-70Le series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this hood assembly installs in the original mounting position with no fitment guesswork. Verified across multiple DPU 100-70 configurations — including the DPU 100-70Le VIBROPLATE and DPU 100-70Le Reversible Vibratory Plate — this part ensures your machine is restored to its original protected condition. Keep your Wacker Neuson compactor running with the correct OEM part sourced straight from the manufacturer's parts catalog.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Shell Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional spec, ensuring the hood fits flush and provides full coverage of the protected area without gaps or misalignment.
- Left-Side Direct Replacement — Designed as a drop-in replacement for the left protective hood assembly; mounts to the existing attachment points on the DPU 100-70 frame without modification.
- Confirmed DPU 100-70 Series Fitment — Compatible with DPU 100-70, DPU 100-70Le VIBROPLATE, and DPU 100-70Le Reversible Vibratory Plate configurations; always verify your machine number before ordering.
- Shields Internal Components from Jobsite Debris — A worn or cracked hood exposes the compactor's internal mechanisms to soil, aggregate, and moisture ingress; replacing it promptly protects costly components underneath.
- Genuine OEM Part Number 5000203231 — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the correct part number for catalog-accurate fitment and straightforward service record documentation.
The protective hood on a reversible vibratory plate compactor acts as a physical guard, shielding the machine's internal drive components, fuel system, and vibration mechanism from contact with compacted material, water, and debris during operation. On heavy-duty DPU-series machines working in trench backfill and aggregate base applications, this exposure risk is significant. When the hood is cracked, broken, or missing entirely, internal components become vulnerable to premature wear and contamination — leading to far more costly repairs than a simple hood replacement. Restoring the correct left-side hood keeps the machine's protective envelope intact and maintains safe, unobstructed operation on site.
