Application and Buying Notes

For a starter motor like this, the most important checks are voltage, rotation, tooth count, and physical mounting dimensions. This unit is 24V, clockwise rotation, 9 tooth, with 145mm mount centres A, 105mm mount centres B and C, and a 3 hole starter mount.

The 3.2kW rating and 35mm pinion diameter are useful identifiers when comparing against the original starter. If the replacement unit differs in tooth count, pinion size, or mount centres, it may not align correctly even if the application appears similar.

Because this starter is listed as Mitsubishi style, the safest approach is to compare the part number MXS259 and the measurements on the existing starter before purchase. Overall length is 230mm, flange diameter is 100mm, and the pinion at rest is 25mm, all of which can help with a direct side-by-side check.

The warranty is 3yr passenger / 1yr commercial, so it is worth confirming whether the vehicle or machine is being used in a passenger or commercial setting. Also note that this is a new starter motor, supplied as a dry clutch unit, so it should be matched to the same application type rather than assumed to suit every Mitsubishi style fitment.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MXS259 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

OEX Starter Motor 24V 9Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS259 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 24. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number MXS259, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a starter motor in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed voltage 24 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include CATERPILLAR E70, CATERPILLAR E70 1995, KATO HD400V-II, KATO HD400V-II 1994, KATO HD450V-II, KATO HD450V-II 1995. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

Compatibility note: Please confirm compatibility using part number MXS259, the 24V clockwise specification, the 9 tooth pinion, and the listed mounting dimensions before ordering. If the existing starter does not match these details, do not assume it will fit.
