Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Cord, pulley, and recoil spring are matched to OEM specification for consistent engagement and pull resistance on the MT85 rammer.
- Direct-Mount Fit — Mounts directly to the engine housing on MT85 series rammers using the original bolt pattern, with no drilling or adaptation needed.
- MT85 Rammer Compatibility — Verified fitment for the Multiquip MT85 tamper series, so you can order with confidence.
- Consistent Cold and Hot Starting — A worn or broken recoil starter prevents the engine from cranking; this assembly restores full, smooth starting performance in demanding field conditions.
- Durable Recoil Cord and Pawl Mechanism — Engineered to withstand repeated pull cycles typical of daily rammer operation, maintaining reliable engagement between pulls.
The recoil starter assembly is the manual pull-start mechanism that transfers energy from the operator's pull cord to the engine crankshaft, allowing the engine to fire and run. It consists of a rope, rewind spring, and pawl or dog clutch that engages the flywheel during the pull stroke and releases automatically once the engine starts. When the recoil spring breaks, the cord fails to retract, or the pawls wear out, the engine simply cannot be started — bringing the rammer to a complete stop on the job. Replacing the assembly with the correct OEM unit restores immediate start capability and keeps the machine working as intended.
