The Multiquip 28461ZE2W02 is a genuine OEM Recoil Starter Knob designed for a wide range of Multiquip, Whiteman, and Essick equipment. This part serves as the pull handle on the recoil starter assembly, giving operators a secure grip when initiating engine start. It is confirmed to fit models including WM70, WM90, WM120, MC64, MC94, GAW180, MRH800GS, R2000H, MVH304GSB, QP402H, QP3TH, SP118, MP2090HP, and several additional series. Sourced directly from Multiquip, part number 28461ZE2W02 matches the original component specification so it installs without modification to the starter housing.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Molded to the same grip profile and material hardness as the original, ensuring a comfortable, secure pull every time the engine is started.
- Direct-Fit Attachment — Designed to thread or snap onto the recoil starter rope end exactly as the factory component does, with no trimming or adapter needed.
- Broad Fitment Coverage — Confirmed for Whiteman mixer series (WM70, WM90, WM120), Multiquip mixer series (MC64, MC94), GAW180 welders, MRH800GS and R2000H rollers, MVH304GSB plate compactor, QP402H and QP3TH pumps, and multiple Multiquip masonry saw models.
- Starter Reliability — A cracked or missing recoil knob forces operators to pull bare rope, which frays quickly and makes cold-start procedures difficult; replacing it promptly restores clean, consistent starts.
- Operator Safety — A properly fitted knob prevents rope slippage during the pull stroke, reducing the risk of hand injury caused by sudden rope snap-back.
The recoil starter knob is the handle attached to the end of the pull cord on a manual recoil starter. When an operator pulls the cord, the knob provides the grip surface that transfers hand force to the starter mechanism, spinning the engine over to initiate combustion. Without a properly intact knob, the pull cord becomes difficult to grip firmly, increasing the effort required to reach adequate cranking speed. Over time, a damaged or absent knob accelerates wear on the rope itself and can prevent reliable starting, leaving equipment idle when it should be working.
