This hexagonal head cap screw, Wacker Neuson part 5000208956, is used at multiple fastening locations on DPU 100-70 series reversible plate compactors, including the bracket, cover, crankcase cover, fuel filter, throttle control, and valve cover assemblies.
Hex head cap screws at these locations secure protective and functional covers against the vibration loads inherent to reversible plate operation. Proper torque on crankcase and valve cover fasteners is important for maintaining a leak-free seal. When replacing screws at these locations, refer to the machine's tightening torque specifications for the applicable thread size and grade. General Wacker Neuson torque tables for coarse-pitch metric fasteners rate M6 class 8.8 screws at 10 Nm (7 ft. lbs.) and M8 class 8.8 screws at 25 Nm (18 ft. lbs.), as reference values for this fastener type. Always verify the specific torque requirement for the assembly location being serviced.
Using a genuine OEM screw ensures correct thread pitch, head geometry, material grade, and dimensional fit for the intended locations on these machines. Substituting non-OEM hardware at crankcase, valve cover, or fuel filter mounting points can result in stripped threads, fastener failure, or fluid leaks.
