The Bomag 05748409 Recoil Starter is a genuine OEM component designed for the BPR 45/55 reversible vibratory plate. Sourced directly from Bomag, this recoil starter matches the original specification for a straight-to-machine installation with no guesswork on fit or compatibility. This part is confirmed for the BPR 45/55, making it the right choice for operators and service technicians keeping that machine in peak working condition.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pull Mechanism — engineered to Bomag's exact recoil spring tension and rope length spec, ensuring the starter engages the engine flywheel correctly every time
- Direct-Mount Replacement — matches the original mounting pattern and housing dimensions of the BPR 45/55, allowing a straightforward swap with existing hardware
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the Bomag BPR 45/55 reversible vibratory plate; part number 05748409 is the OEM reference for this machine
- Dependable Cold-Start Performance — a correctly functioning recoil starter delivers consistent, repeatable engine starts, keeping your plate compactor ready to work when it hits the site
- Operator Safety — a worn or broken recoil mechanism can cause rope snap-back or failed starts in the field; replacing it with an OEM unit restores predictable, controlled pull behavior
The recoil starter is the manual pull-start mechanism that spins the engine crankshaft fast enough to initiate combustion. It houses a coiled return spring and a braided pull rope that, when yanked, engages a set of flyweights or a pawl against the engine flywheel before automatically retracting. When the recoil spring breaks, the rope frays, or the pawl wears out, the engine simply will not start — leaving the machine dead on site. Replacing a failed recoil starter with a matched OEM unit restores reliable starting and eliminates the frustration and lost time that come with a faulty pull-start assembly.
