The Wacker Neuson Recoil Starter is a genuine OEM Recoil Starter designed for the VP1035R and VP1135RW Value Vibratory Plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same part number and specification as the original component fitted at the factory. It is confirmed compatible with the VP1035R (10 kN, 356mm/14in) and VP1135RW (11 kN, 356mm/14in) single-direction vibratory plate compactors, giving you full confidence in the fit before you order.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pull-Start Assembly — Manufactured to the original rope tension and ratchet engagement spec, so the cord retracts smoothly and the engine catches on the first pull.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original bolt pattern and housing profile of the VP1035R and VP1135RW, so it bolts directly onto the engine shroud without modification.
- Confirmed Fitment — Compatible with the VP1035R Value Vibratory Plate (10 kN) and VP1135RW Value Vibratory Plate (11 kN), both in the 356mm/14in plate width class.
- Consistent Cold-Start Performance — A worn or broken recoil starter leaves the machine impossible to start on site; this OEM unit restores reliable pull-cord engagement and full starting force.
- Rope and Pawl Integrity — The complete recoil assembly includes the rope, rewind spring, and engagement pawls, ensuring every component of the start system is fresh and properly tensioned.
The recoil starter is the manual pull-start mechanism mounted to the engine housing of a vibratory plate compactor. When the operator pulls the handle, an internal rewind spring and rope drum spin the engine crankshaft fast enough to initiate combustion. The engagement pawls extend under centrifugal force during the pull and retract once the engine fires, disconnecting the starter from the spinning crankshaft. Over time, the rope frays, the rewind spring loses tension, or the pawls wear down — any of these failures will leave the machine unable to start. Replacing the complete Wacker Neuson 5000115757 Recoil Starter restores full pull-start function and gets the compactor back in service.
