OEX Starter Motor 24V 11 Tooth CW Mitsubishi Style MXS9606

The OEX starter motor MXS9606 is a new 24V unit with clockwise rotation, 11 teeth, and a 4.5kW power rating. It is described as Mitsubishi style and uses a 2-hole starter mount with 152mm mount centres, so the matching unit should be checked against those core dimensions before purchase.

Key physical details include a 110mm flange diameter, M12x1.75 / 14 mount hole diameter, 290mm overall length, 40mm pinion diameter, and 66mm pinion at rest. At 7.48kg, this is a substantial rotating electrical component and the dimensions matter just as much as the voltage and tooth count when matching a replacement.

OEX states its products are sourced from market leading original equipment manufacturers and aftermarket suppliers, with supply from ISO certified factories. This starter motor is backed by a 3yr passenger / 1yr commercial warranty, and the listed part number is MXS9606.

Application and Buying Notes

When replacing a starter motor, the safest check is to compare the part number MXS9606 with the removed unit, then confirm the electrical and mounting details. This unit is 24V, clockwise rotation, 11-tooth, and uses a 2-hole mount with 152mm mount centres, so a close visual match alone is not enough.

The listed physical dimensions are important for interchange: flange diameter 110mm, overall length 290mm, pinion diameter 40mm, and pinion at rest 66mm. If any of those measurements differ from the old starter, the replacement may not seat or engage correctly even if the vehicle make appears similar.

The fitment data is not limited to one vehicle family and includes multiple Caterpillar, Hidromek, KATO, Kobelco, Komatsu, and Mitsubishi Fuso applications. Because of that spread, confirm the exact model, year where available, and the physical starter specifications rather than relying on make alone.

If you are cross-referencing an existing starter, the 11 teeth and clockwise rotation are especially important checkpoints. A mismatch in tooth count or rotation direction can prevent proper engagement with the ring gear, even when the mount pattern appears close.

For commercial or heavy-duty use, the warranty difference matters: 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use. Make sure the intended use matches the warranty terms shown for this part before finalising the purchase.

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 MXS9606 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 11Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number MXS9606 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 MXS9606, 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.

Compatibility note: Please confirm fitment by checking part number MXS9606, 24V voltage, 11 teeth, clockwise rotation, 2-hole mount, 152mm mount centres, and the listed dimensions against the removed unit and vehicle application before ordering.
