Multiquip 28421ZE3W01 Recoil Starter Pulley

The Multiquip 28421ZE3W01 is a genuine OEM Recoil Starter Pulley designed for a wide range of Multiquip and Whiteman equipment, including walk-behind rollers, plate compactors, concrete mixers, gasoline arc welders, gasoline-powered generators, and flat saws. As a direct OEM replacement, 28421ZE3W01 is manufactured to the original specification, ensuring correct rope seating, diameter, and engagement geometry for a drop-in installation. Confirmed fitment spans the MRH800GS, V305EH, MVH408GH, MVH304GSB, MC12PH, GAW180HE, GAW180HE1, GAW180HEA, GA6HEB, GA6HB, GA6HZ, GA9.7HE, WM120SH, WM120PH, EM120S Series, EM120P Series, SP118, and SP1CE13H18. Stocking this part means your crew is never sidelined by a cracked or worn starter pulley.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Construction — Molded to the original pulley profile, ensuring proper rope groove depth and cord retention that aftermarket profiles can compromise.
• Drop-In Starter Housing Fit — Matches the original hub bore and outer diameter of the recoil housing, so the pulley seats and locks without filing, shimming, or adapting.
• Broad Multiquip Fleet Coverage — A single part number covers walk-behind rollers (MRH800GS, V305EH), plate compactors (MVH408GH, MVH304GSB), mixers (MC12PH, WM120SH, WM120PH, EM120S/EM120P Series), welders (GAW180HE series), generators (GA6HEB, GA6HB, GA6HZ, GA9.7HE), and saws (SP118, SP1CE13H18).
• Consistent Rope Engagement — A correctly dimensioned pulley winds and releases the starter rope evenly, preventing premature fraying, starter cord snap-back, and failed cold-start attempts.
• Safe Recoil Operation — A worn or cracked pulley can release rope tension suddenly, creating a snap-back hazard for the operator. Replacing with the correct OEM part restores controlled, predictable recoil behavior.

The recoil starter pulley is the grooved spool inside the starter housing that stores and guides the pull cord. When an operator pulls the starter handle, the rope unwinds from the pulley and spins the engine crankshaft to initiate combustion; a built-in spring then rewinds the rope back onto the pulley ready for the next pull. Over time the pulley can crack from impact, develop worn rope grooves that cause fraying, or break at the hub, preventing the engine from starting altogether. Replacing a damaged pulley promptly restores reliable manual starting and protects the surrounding recoil housing components from secondary damage.
