Bomag 08821169 Starter

The Bomag 08821169 Starter is a genuine OEM starter designed for a wide range of Bomag single drum rollers, tandem rollers, and pneumatic tyred rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter delivers the exact fit and electrical specification your machine requires — no guesswork, no adaptation. It is compatible with models including the BW 211 D-5, BW 211 DH-5, BW 211 PD-5, BW 211 PDH-5, BW 212 D-5, BW 212 DH-5, BW 213 D-5, BW 213 D-4i, BW 214 D-5, BW 214 D-4i, BW 211 D-50, BW 211 PD-50, BW 211 D-4i, BW 190 AD-5, BW 190 ADO-5, BW 161 AD-5, BW 161 ADO-5, BW 174 AP-4f, BW 174 AP-4f AM, BW 174 APO-4f, and BW 28 RH single drum, tandem, and pneumatic tyred rollers. When a worn or failed starter leaves your roller unable to crank, fitting the correct OEM part gets you back to full operation with confidence.

Key Features

• OEM Electrical Specification — meets Bomag's exact voltage, torque output, and engagement spec for reliable cranking in demanding compaction environments
• Drop-In Replacement — mounts directly to the engine block using the original bolt pattern and connector, matching the factory starter it replaces
• Broad Fitment Coverage — fits BW 211, BW 212, BW 213, BW 214, BW 190, BW 161, BW 174, and BW 28 RH series rollers across single drum, tandem, and pneumatic tyred configurations
• Consistent Engine Start Performance — a correctly functioning starter ensures full flywheel engagement on every turn of the key, preventing hard-start conditions that strain the battery and drive belt system
• Genuine Bomag Part — backed by Bomag's OEM supply chain under part number 08821169, so you receive the same component installed on the production line

The starter is the electric motor responsible for cranking the engine each time the machine is keyed on. It draws current from the battery, spins a drive pinion into the flywheel ring gear, and rotates the engine until combustion takes over — at which point the pinion retracts automatically. On heavy compaction equipment like Bomag single drum and tandem rollers, the starter must deliver sufficient torque to turn a large diesel engine under varying temperature and load conditions. When the starter fails or wears out, the engine will not crank, leaving the roller unable to operate; a worn starter can also cause slow cranking, which stresses the battery and may prevent cold-weather starts entirely.
