The Bomag 05748531 Recoil Starter is a genuine OEM recoil starter designed for Bomag BT 60, BT 60/4, BT 65, and BT 65/4 tampers, the BVT 65 tamper, and BVP 10/30 and BP 10/30 vibratory plates. As a direct OEM replacement, this part carries the same specification as the original component it replaces, giving you a straightforward, accurate swap. Whether you are servicing a tamper on a tight trench job or getting a vibratory plate back in rotation, part number 05748531 is the correct starting-system component for these machines. Sourced directly through authorized supply channels, it meets Bomag's original build standards right out of the box.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pull-Start Integrity — manufactured to the same engagement and cord-tension specifications as the original, so the starter mechanism operates with the correct resistance and return action from the first pull
- Exact-Match Replacement — mounts directly to the engine housing using the original bolt pattern, requiring no modification to surrounding components
- Broad Tamper and Plate Fitment — confirmed fit for BT 60, BT 60/4, BT 65, BT 65/4, and BVT 65 tampers, plus BVP 10/30 and BP 10/30 vibratory plates; verify your model against part number 05748531 before ordering
- Consistent Cold-Start Performance — a worn or broken recoil starter leaves the machine unable to start; this replacement restores reliable engine engagement across varying field conditions
- Safe Starting-System Compliance — a correctly functioning recoil starter prevents uncontrolled cord snap-back and ensures the engine disengages the starter mechanism at the right moment, protecting the operator during startup
The recoil starter is the manual pull-start assembly that initiates engine cranking on small-displacement equipment. When the operator pulls the handle, an internal spring-loaded cord mechanism engages the engine's flywheel, spinning it fast enough to fire the combustion cycle; once the engine starts, a built-in clutch automatically disengages the starter to prevent damage. Over time, the recoil spring, cord, or pawl mechanism can wear, fray, or break, leaving the machine impossible to start and halting work entirely. Replacing a failed recoil starter with the correct OEM part restores full manual-start function and ensures the engagement-disengagement cycle works as originally engineered.
