The Bomag 05710971 Starter is a genuine OEM component designed for a wide range of Bomag heavy equipment, including BM 2000/60 and BM 2000/60-2 cold milling machines, BC-series refuse/landfill compactors, BC-series soil compactors, and MPH-series recyclers/stabilizers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter delivers an exact OEM match in form, fit, and electrical specification. Confirmed fitment spans models including the BC 670 RB, BC 672 RB, BC 671 RB, BC 671 RS, BC 772 RB, BC 772 RS, BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 772 EB-2, BC 672 EB-2, MPH 121, MPH 122, MPH 122-2, and MPH 125, among others. When your machine won't turn over, replacing a worn or failed starter with the correct OEM part gets your equipment back in service without guesswork.
Key Features
- OEM Electrical Specification — matched to Bomag's original torque output, voltage rating, and pinion engagement spec so the engine cranks with the same authority as it did from the factory
- Direct Bolt-On Replacement — mounts to the same bolt pattern and connects to the same wiring harness as the original, with no modifications to the mounting block or electrical circuit
- Broad Bomag Fleet Coverage — fits BM 2000/60 and BM 2000/60-2 cold milling machines, BC-series refuse/landfill compactors (including BC 571 RB, BC 670 RB, BC 772 RB, BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 671 RS, BC 772 RS, and their -2 generation variants), BC 772 EB-2 and BC 672 EB-2 soil compactors, and MPH 121, MPH 122, MPH 122-2, and MPH 125 recyclers/stabilizers
- Cranking Reliability — a failing starter causes hard starts, intermittent no-crank events, and eventual full failure; a correctly functioning starter ensures the engine fires promptly under load, preserving gear and fuel system life
- Genuine Bomag Part — supplied as an authentic OEM component under part number 05710971, eliminating any risk of mismatched solenoid engagement or premature ring gear wear from an undersized or off-spec unit
The starter is the electric motor responsible for cranking the engine fast enough for combustion to begin. When the operator turns the ignition key, the starter solenoid engages the drive pinion with the engine's ring gear and draws high current from the battery to spin the engine over. A worn or failed starter presents as slow cranking, a single click with no crank, or complete electrical silence at key-on — all of which leave a heavy machine dead on site. Fitting the correct OEM-spec starter ensures reliable cold-weather cranking and protects the ring gear from damage caused by a pinion that does not engage cleanly.
