The Multiquip 28405-001 is a genuine OEM Recoil Starter Mounting Spacer designed for MVH158GH reversible plate compactors, SP1G flat saws, and MTX80HDR and MTX70HDR rammers. As a direct Multiquip OEM component, 28405-001 is manufactured to the exact dimensional tolerances required for proper recoil starter alignment and secure housing. Confirm your model code against the fitment list before ordering to ensure a correct application match across these distinct equipment families.
Key Features
- Exact OEM Dimensional Tolerancing — Manufactured to precise thickness and bore specifications so the recoil starter seats flush and aligns correctly with the mounting points every time.
- Drop-In Starter Housing Fit — Installs directly between the recoil starter assembly and the engine housing with no additional machining or shimming required at the mounting interface.
- Broad Cross-Family Fitment — Confirmed for MVH158GH reversible plate compactors, SP1G flat saws, and MTX80HDR and MTX70HDR rammers — verify your model code before ordering.
- Starter Engagement Protection — Maintains correct axial spacing between the starter and engine housing, preventing misalignment that can cause rope binding, premature pawl wear, or failed pull-starts.
- Genuine Multiquip OEM Component — Sourced directly from Multiquip, part 28405-001 carries full OEM traceability and is the same part shipped in original equipment builds.
A recoil starter mounting spacer controls the precise gap between the recoil starter assembly and the engine's mounting surface. When this spacing is correct, the starter rope pulls smoothly, the drive pawls engage the flywheel cleanly, and the starter housing remains secure under repeated pull loads. If the spacer is missing, worn, or dimensionally incorrect, the starter can sit too close to or too far from the flywheel, causing hard starting, rope jamming, or accelerated wear on the pawl and cup components — any of which can leave equipment unable to start on the job.
