Wacker Neuson 5200000542 Push Rod

The Wacker Neuson Push Rod is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Wacker Neuson equipment, including BFS floor saws, GP and GPS portable generators, RD7 tandem rollers, BPU reversible vibratory plate compactors, and PT4A self-priming trash pumps. As a direct OEM replacement, part is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring correct fit and function across all listed models. Compatible machines span the BFS1318, BFS1345, and BFS1350 floor saw series, the GP5600A, GP6600A, GPS5600A, and GPS6600 generator lines, the RD7A tandem roller, the BPU5545A, BPU5260Ah, and BPU6275Ah plate compactors, and the PT4A and PT4A(I) trash pumps. When it's time to restore your machine to proper working condition, the is the correct part to reach for.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the original dimensional and material tolerances required for proper valve train actuation across all listed engine applications.
• Drop-In Engine Fitment — Installs directly into the engine block's push rod bore with no machining or adaptation, maintaining the correct geometry between the camshaft lobe and rocker arm.
• Broad Cross-Family Compatibility — A single OEM part number covering BFS floor saws, GP/GPS generator series, RD7A tandem rollers, BPU plate compactors, and PT4A trash pumps — verify your model number before ordering.
• Valve Train Integrity — A correctly functioning push rod transfers camshaft lift precisely to the rocker arm; a bent or worn rod causes misfires, loss of compression, and uneven engine performance.
• Engine Safety Compliance — Replacing a damaged push rod restores correct valve timing, preventing the risk of valve-to-piston contact and the catastrophic engine damage that follows.

The push rod is a critical link in a 4-stroke engine's valve train, transferring the rotational motion of the camshaft lobe into linear motion that opens and closes the intake and exhaust valves via the rocker arms. In overhead-valve engines — the type common across Wacker Neuson's equipment lineup — the push rod bridges the gap between the camshaft (located in the engine block) and the rocker arm (located above the cylinder head). When a push rod bends, wears, or breaks, valve timing is disrupted immediately, leading to hard starting, rough running, loss of power, or complete engine failure if left unaddressed.
