Product Description P/N: 5000086968
Description
The Wacker Neuson 5000086968 is an adjustable clutch assembly designed for WP1540 and WP1550 single-direction vibratory plate compactors. With a 3/4-inch shaft interface, it transfers engine power to the belt-driven exciter system at operating speed while disengaging at idle to reduce unnecessary drivetrain load.

Information About 5000086968
The 5000086968 is a genuine Wacker Neuson adjustable clutch used across multiple WP1540 and WP1550 vibratory plate configurations. Its centrifugal operating principle allows the clutch to engage automatically as engine speed increases, transferring rotation through the drive belt to the exciter that produces the machine's compaction vibration. The assembly uses a 3/4-inch shaft connection and is compatible with selected machines powered by engines such as the Honda GX160, with fitment covering numerous A, AW, W, V, VW, R, and RW model variants. It replaces legacy Wacker Neuson number 0086968 and should be matched to the machine model and serial/revision because later plate configurations may use a different clutch assembly.
Key Features:
- Adjustable Clutch Assembly: Provides an adjustable configuration for proper engagement within compatible WP-series drive systems.
- Centrifugal Operation: Automatically engages as engine speed rises and disengages when engine speed returns toward idle.
- 3/4-Inch Shaft Interface: Designed around a 0.75-inch engine output shaft connection.
- WP1540 Compatibility: Fits selected Wacker Neuson WP1540, WP1540A, WP1540AW, and WP1540W plate compactors.
- WP1550 Compatibility: Used on selected WP1550, WP1550A, WP1550AW, WP1550V, WP1550VW, WP1550R, WP1550RW, and WP1550W configurations.
- Engine-to-Exciter Power Transfer: Transfers engine rotation through the drive belt to the eccentric exciter mechanism.
- Compaction Drive Function: Enables the vibration system responsible for compacting soil, gravel, aggregate, and paving-base materials.
- Honda GX160 Application: Compatible with applicable WP configurations using a 3/4-inch-shaft Honda GX160 engine.
- Metal Construction: Designed to withstand the vibration and repeated engagement cycles encountered in plate compactor operation.
- OEM Replacement Configuration: Manufactured to replace the factory-installed clutch without modification when used on the correct machine revision.
- Legacy Number Support: Cross-references the earlier Wacker Neuson part number 0086968.
- Revision-Specific Fitment: Machine identification and serial number should be checked before installation, particularly on later WP1540/WP1550 equipment.
The 5000086968 delivers the reliability and precision required for engine-to-exciter power transmission in compatible Wacker Neuson vibratory plate compactors.
