The Wacker Neuson 5000047998 Ratchet (Pawl) is a genuine OEM component designed for the BS-series gasoline vibratory rammer line, covering BS50-2, BS60-2, BS70-2, BS62-2, BS65, BS68, and related variants. As a direct OEM replacement, this part is produced to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct engagement geometry and dimensional accuracy within the rammer's recoil starter mechanism. Fitment spans a broad range of BS-series rammer configurations including standard, plus, i-series, and legacy models across US, EU, and export variants. Verify your machine's model number before ordering to confirm applicability.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pawl Geometry — Manufactured to the original tooth profile and material spec, maintaining positive engagement with the starter ratchet ring under repeated pull-start loads.
- Broad BS-Series Coverage — Fits BS50-2, BS60-2, BS70-2, BS62-2, BS65, BS68, and numerous sub-variants including i-series, plus, and legacy Y/500/600/700 models.
- Drop-In Starter Assembly Fit — Installs directly into the existing recoil starter housing with no modification to the starter cup or drive hub.
- Restores Reliable Pull-Start Function — A worn or chipped pawl causes the starter rope to spin freely without cranking the engine; replacing it returns the rammer to immediate, consistent starting.
- Sourced from Wacker Neuson — Supplied as a genuine OEM part, carrying the same part number referenced in Wacker Neuson service documentation and parts catalogs.
The ratchet pawl is a small but critical component inside the recoil starter assembly of a gasoline rammer. When the operator pulls the starter rope, the pawl engages the starter cup and transfers rotational force to the engine crankshaft to initiate combustion. Over time, the pawl's engagement tooth wears down or the spring tension that holds it outward weakens, causing the starter to slip — the rope pulls freely but the engine does not turn over. Replacing the pawl restores full mechanical engagement between the recoil mechanism and the engine, allowing the rammer to start reliably on every pull.
