The Bomag 05745288 Recoil Starter is a genuine OEM component designed for the BW 75 H walk-behind light roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this recoil starter matches the original unit in every dimension and mounting configuration, ensuring a straightforward swap with no guesswork. If your BW 75 H is failing to crank or the pull cord has seized, snapped, or lost its return tension, this is the correct replacement to restore reliable engine starting.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Engagment Mechanism — manufactured to Bomag's exact ratchet and pawl tolerances, delivering consistent engagement with the engine flywheel every pull
- Direct Replacement for the BW 75 H — mounts to the same bolt pattern as the original unit, allowing a clean, straightforward installation on BW 75 H walk-behind light rollers
- Correct Fitment Verified — confirmed for the Bomag BW 75 H under part number 05745288, eliminating compatibility uncertainty before the part ships
- Restore Engine Start Performance — a worn or broken recoil starter leaves the machine unable to start; this genuine replacement brings pull-start function fully back to original operation
- OEM Cord and Return Spring — includes the correctly rated rewind spring and rope assembly, ensuring smooth cord retraction and full pull-stroke length after installation
A recoil starter is the manual pull-start mechanism that transfers force from the operator's pull to the engine crankshaft, spinning it fast enough to fire. Inside the housing, a coiled return spring rewinds the rope after each pull, while a set of centrifugal pawls or a ratchet engages the flywheel cup during the pull stroke and releases automatically once the engine fires. When the rope frays, the return spring breaks, or the pawl mechanism wears, the engine simply won't crank — leaving the roller stranded on site. Replacing the recoil starter with a genuine Bomag unit restores the full starting cycle and gets the BW 75 H back to work.
