The Wacker Neuson Lever Choke Control is a genuine OEM component designed for the BH 23, BH 24, BH 55, and BH 65 series gasoline and petrol breakers. As a direct factory replacement, this lever delivers the precise fit and correct operating geometry the original design demands — no guesswork, no adaptation. It is compatible across an extensive range of BH series breaker configurations, including standard, Low Vibration, RS, and rw variants with a variety of tool holder sizes. Sourcing a genuine Wacker Neuson part means you are installing the same component the machine was built with, maintaining correct choke function from the first pull.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Choke Lever Geometry — Manufactured to the original pivot angle and throw distance, ensuring the choke plate moves through its full range of travel without binding or over-travel.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting points and linkage connection on BH series breakers, slotting in exactly as the factory lever does.
- Broad BH Series Compatibility — Fits BH 23, BH 24, BH 24 Low Vib, BH 55, BH 55rw, BH 65, and associated RS and regional variants across multiple tool holder configurations.
- Cold-Start Performance — A correctly functioning choke lever allows the engine to reach the proper fuel-to-air ratio for reliable cold starting — a worn or broken lever makes starting in cold conditions difficult and increases engine strain.
- Fuel System Safety — Proper choke operation prevents prolonged over-rich running that can foul the spark plug, wash cylinder walls, and lead to unburned fuel accumulation — making this a simple part with meaningful safety implications.
The choke lever controls the choke plate inside the carburetor, temporarily restricting airflow to enrich the fuel mixture during cold starts. On gasoline-powered breakers like the BH series, reliable choke action is essential — without it, the engine may crank repeatedly without firing, or run rough until fully warmed up. A damaged or missing lever leaves the operator without manual control over the starting mixture, making it one of the first components to inspect when a breaker becomes difficult to start.
