Wacker Neuson 5100065741 Starter Housing

The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Starter Housing designed for the BH40, BH55, BH65, BS62-2, and BS68-2 series breakers and rammers. As a factory-authorized component, it is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring a direct-fit installation with no guesswork. This Starter Housing is confirmed compatible across a wide range of Wacker Neuson petrol breaker and rammer configurations, including BH55rw, BH55rw rs, BH40rs, and Sunbelt-spec BS62-2lb/16 and BS68-2b/28 models. When it's time to restore your machine's recoil starting system to full working order, part is the correct, verified replacement.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Construction — Molded and dimensioned to factory tolerances, so the recoil mechanism seats and aligns correctly within the engine housing every time.
• Direct-Fit Replacement — Matches the original mounting points and pull-cord routing of the factory unit, allowing a straightforward swap without trimming or adapting.
• Broad Series Compatibility — Covers BH40, BH55, BH65 breaker variants and BS62-2, BS68-2 rammer series, including rs, rw, and Sunbelt-specification models.
• Protects the Starting System — A cracked or broken housing allows debris and moisture into the recoil assembly, which leads to cord damage and failed starts; replacing it promptly restores a sealed, functional starting system.
• Safe Recoil Operation — A structurally sound housing keeps the recoil spring and cord contained under tension, preventing a sudden release that could cause operator injury during startup.

The starter housing is the outer shell that encloses and protects the recoil starter assembly on a petrol engine. It anchors the pull-cord guide, retains the recoil spring, and provides the structural casing that keeps all starting components aligned during each pull cycle. When the housing cracks, warps, or breaks — typically from impact or prolonged vibration — the recoil mechanism loses its alignment, the cord can jam or snap, and the engine may become impossible to start. Replacing a damaged housing restores the integrity of the entire starting system and gets the machine back into service quickly.
