The Wacker Neuson Choke Lever is a genuine OEM component designed for the RD12-90 Tandem Roller and CRT36-25 Ride-on Trowel series. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the same specifications as the original installed at the factory, ensuring a direct, trouble-free installation. Whether you're servicing a solid ROPS or foldable ROPS configuration of the RD12-90, or a standard or wheel kit-equipped CRT36-25, part number is the correct replacement for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Choke Actuation Accuracy — Built to the exact pivot geometry and lever travel spec of the original, so the choke plate opens and closes fully at every operator input.
- Drop-In Installation — Matches the original mounting points and linkage connection of the 5000215208 exactly, so the lever seats and fastens without modification.
- Broad Model Coverage — Fits RD12-90 Tandem Rollers (solid and foldable ROPS variants) and CRT36-25 915mm/36in Ride-on Trowels (standard and wheel kit configurations).
- Cold-Start Dependability — A correctly functioning choke lever delivers consistent fuel-air enrichment at startup, preventing hard starts and rough running in cold or damp site conditions.
- Fuel System Safety — A worn or binding choke lever can leave the engine running rich, causing excess fuel accumulation; replacing it promptly maintains proper fuel system operation and safe engine behavior.
The choke lever is the operator-controlled linkage that opens and closes the choke plate in the engine's carburetor. When engaged, it restricts airflow to enrich the fuel-air mixture, giving the engine the extra fuel it needs to fire reliably from a cold start. A damaged, bent, or worn choke lever can stick in the closed position — causing the engine to run rich, foul spark plugs, and consume excess fuel — or fail to close at all, making cold starts difficult and unreliable.
