Description
Overview:
The Rope Rotor fits Yanmar L48 is a replacement recoil starter rotor for Yanmar single-cylinder engines. It sits inside the starter housing and guides the pull cord, storing and releasing energy to turn the crankshaft for reliable hand starting. Manufactured from durable polymer with a smooth cord channel, it helps reduce wear on the rope and maintains consistent engagement with the starter mechanism. Suitable for Yanmar L48 and L48AE engines and compatible with the L40AE series, it is commonly used across compact construction and garden machinery such as generators, pumps, plate compactors and small agricultural equipment. For easy identification and ordering, this rotor corresponds to OEM reference 160260-76520 and is designed to fit without modification when replacing a worn or damaged original unit.
Key Features:
- Engineered for Yanmar L48/L48AE and L40AE series recoil starters
- Durable polymer construction with smooth cord track to minimise rope wear
- Helps restore dependable, consistent pull-start performance
- Accurate moulding for correct fit and alignment in the starter housing
- Supports positive engagement with starter pawls for effective cranking
