The Bomag 05745082 Starter Rope is a genuine OEM component designed for BPR 45/55 D and BPR 55/65 D reversible vibratory plates. Sourced directly from Bomag, this starter rope matches the original equipment specification for a direct, hassle-free installation. If your current rope has snapped, frayed, or lost its recoil tension, replacing it with part number 05745082 restores reliable pull-start operation and gets your plate compactor back to work.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Durability — Manufactured to Bomag's original material and length specifications, delivering the tensile strength and flexibility needed to withstand repeated pull-start cycles without premature fraying or breakage.
- Direct-Fit Installation — This starter rope is engineered to match the recoil starter assembly on compatible BPR-series reversible vibratory plates, threading and anchoring exactly as the original did.
- Confirmed Compatibility — Fits BPR 45/55 D and BPR 55/65 D reversible vibratory plates, covering both common diesel-engine plate models in the BPR mid-range lineup.
- Restored Pull-Start Performance — A worn or broken starter rope makes it impossible to fire the engine on-site. This replacement restores full recoil function so operators can start the machine with confidence every time.
- Verified Part Number Integrity — Ordering by Bomag part number 05745082 eliminates guesswork and ensures you receive the exact rope gauge and length engineered for this application.
The starter rope is the pull cord that engages the recoil starter mechanism to crank the engine on a manually started machine. When an operator pulls the handle, the rope uncoils to spin the starter assembly, which turns the engine over until it fires. Over time, repeated pulling and exposure to heat, fuel, and UV light cause the rope to fray, stiffen, or snap entirely — leaving the machine unable to start. Replacing a worn starter rope promptly is one of the simplest and most cost-effective maintenance tasks on a diesel reversible vibratory plate, and using a correctly sized OEM rope ensures the recoil spring retracts it cleanly after every pull.
