Denso Starter Motor 12V 9 Tooth CCW DXS608

The Denso starter motor DXS608 is a new 12V starter motor with 9 teeth and counter-clockwise rotation. It is listed as a genuine Denso unit and carries a one year warranty, making it a straightforward replacement option where the original starter matches the same voltage, rotation, and mounting layout.

Key physical details matter with a starter motor, and this unit measures 182mm overall length with a 65.5mm flange diameter. It uses a 2 hole starter mount, 108mm mount centres, and 9.5mm mount hole diameter, so the replacement should be checked carefully against the existing starter before ordering.

The pinion specification is equally important on this Denso starter motor. It has a 29mm pinion diameter, 9 teeth, and 18mm pinion at rest, with a power rating of .6kW and a weight of 3.1kg. Those figures help confirm you are comparing like with like when replacing an electrical component in the rotating electrical system.

Application and Buying Notes

Before buying, compare the part number DXS608, the 12V electrical rating, and the CCW rotation with the starter you are replacing. Starter motors are sensitive to mounting pattern and drive specifications, so the 2 hole mount, 108mm mount centres, 9.5mm mount hole diameter, and 9 tooth pinion should all be checked against the original unit.

The dimensions can save time and prevent a mismatch. This Denso starter motor measures 182mm overall length, has a 65.5mm flange diameter, and uses a 29mm pinion with 18mm pinion at rest. If the old starter differs on any of these points, stop and confirm before fitting, because physical interchange is just as important as voltage when replacing a starter.

The listed fitment coverage includes John Deere applications such as 2243, 285, 320, 345, F725, Gator, GX345, LX178, and LX188. Even where a model name appears in the fitment data, the safest approach is still to confirm the exact starter against the part number, mounting arrangement, and tooth count on the vehicle or equipment you have in front of you.

This unit is described as new and genuine, with a one year warranty. It is intended for dry clutch applications and sits within the rotating electrical product group, so it suits buyers looking for a direct replacement starter rather than a universal electrical component. The .6kW rating and 3.1kg weight are also useful cross-checks when comparing alternatives.

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 DXS608 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.

Denso Starter Motor 12V 9Th CCW. Part number DXS608 should be checked first. Listed voltage is 12. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number DXS608, 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 12 should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include JOHN DEERE 2243, JOHN DEERE 2243 1980, JOHN DEERE 285, JOHN DEERE 285 1988. 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: Confirm fitment by matching the DXS608 part number, 12V rating, CCW rotation, 2 hole mounting pattern, 9 tooth drive, and the listed dimensions against the existing starter and application details before purchase.
