The Bomag 05749492 Starter is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 138 AD-5, BW 138 AC-5, and BW 135 AD-5 tandem rollers, as well as BW 124 PDH-5 and BW 124 DH-5 single drum rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter delivers an exact fit with no guesswork — the right part for the right machine. Whether you are servicing a tandem roller on an asphalt crew or maintaining a single drum roller on a soil compaction project, this genuine OEM replacement restores reliable engine starting performance to your equipment.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Cranking Spec — meets Bomag's original torque and engagement specifications for this starter application, ensuring the engine turns over correctly at first key-turn
- Direct-Mount Replacement — engineered to the original mounting configuration, so this starter installs directly in place of the factory unit without modification
- Broad Roller Coverage — fits BW 138 AD-5, BW 138 AC-5, and BW 135 AD-5 tandem rollers, plus BW 124 PDH-5 and BW 124 DH-5 single drum rollers
- Engine Start Integrity — a properly functioning starter ensures consistent ignition under field conditions; a worn or failed starter leaves a roller unable to operate, stalling production on the job
- Electrical Safety Compliance — as a critical electrical component in the engine start circuit, using a correctly rated OEM starter protects the machine's electrical system from overload or incompatible draw
The starter is the electrical motor responsible for cranking the engine until combustion begins. When the operator turns the ignition key, the starter motor engages the engine flywheel, spinning it fast enough to initiate the combustion cycle. A failing starter may turn sluggishly, fail to engage the flywheel, or not respond at all — leaving the machine unable to start and bringing compaction work to a halt. Replacing a worn starter with a genuine Bomag part, such as part number 05749492, ensures the engine start system performs to the original design standard and keeps your roller operational through demanding project schedules.
