The Bomag 05718064 Starter is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 124-series single drum rollers and BW 161-series tandem rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter delivers the correct electrical output and mechanical engagement your machine requires. It is a direct-fit replacement for part number 05718064, covering a broad range of BW 124 and BW 161 variants including the BW 124 DH-4, BW 124 PDH, BW 124 DH-40, BW 124 PDH-40, BW 161 AD-4, BW 161 AC-4, BW 161 ADO-4, BW 161 AD-4 EU-Flex, and the C815D single drum roller.
Key Features
- OEM Electrical Output — manufactured to Bomag's exact voltage and torque specifications, ensuring the starter motor cranks the engine with the correct force every time
- Direct-Fit Replacement — matches the original mounting configuration and pinion engagement of the outgoing unit, allowing a straightforward swap with no bracket or adapter modifications
- Broad Model Coverage — fits BW 124-series single drum rollers and BW 161-series tandem rollers, including the BW 124 DH-4, BW 124 PDH-40, BW 161 AD-4, BW 161 AC-4, BW 161 ADO-4, BW 161 AD-4 EU-Flex, and C815D
- Reliable Cold-Start Performance — a properly functioning starter delivers consistent engine ignition in demanding site conditions; a worn or failing starter risks slow cranking, failed starts, and costly work stoppages
- Electrical Safety Compliance — as a core ignition-system component, using a genuine OEM starter maintains correct circuit protection and avoids the risk of overload or short-circuit associated with mismatched aftermarket units
The starter is the electric motor responsible for cranking the engine to begin combustion. When the operator turns the key or activates the start switch, the starter engages its drive pinion with the engine flywheel ring gear, spinning the engine fast enough to initiate the combustion cycle. A starter that is worn or failing will crank slowly, fail to engage the flywheel cleanly, or not engage at all — leaving the roller unable to start and bringing compaction work to a halt. Keeping a correctly specified starter in service is essential to the reliable daily startup that roller operators depend on.
