Application and Buying Notes

Before buying, match the part number ASMI54271 and compare the starter’s physical measurements against your removed unit. The key checks here are the 12V electrical setup, 2kW output, clockwise rotation, 9 tooth pinion, and the 3 hole mounting pattern with 145mm, 105mm, and 105mm mount centres.

The listed flange diameter of 100mm, overall length of 240mm, pinion diameter of 35mm, and pinion at rest measurement of 22mm are all useful when confirming interchangeability. These measurements matter because starters with similar appearance can still differ in mounting depth, gear engagement, or housing size.

This starter is described as Mitsubishi style and suits Mitsubishi applications, with fitment references also shown for Caterpillar E70 and Kato HD400V-II and HD450V-II variants. Even where the model name appears familiar, the safest approach is to verify the starter arrangement on the machine and compare it with the replacement unit before fitting.

If you are replacing a unit that has already been removed, check the old starter for the same tooth count, rotation, mount type, and overall length. The one year warranty applies to the supplied new unit, but correct application matching remains the buyer’s responsibility before installation.

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 ASMI54271 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.

Starter Motor 12V 9Th CW Mitsubishi Style. Part number ASMI54271 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 ASMI54271, 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 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: Confirm compatibility by matching part number ASMI54271, the 12V 2kW CW specification, and the mounting and dimensional measurements against the vehicle or machine already fitted.
