It is listed as a 24V unit with a 9th clockwise configuration, which makes the electrical rating and rotation direction important checkpoints before purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis starter motor is supplied as each and carries a one year warranty. Key physical details include 3 mounting bores, a mounting points diameter of 146.0 mm, a flywheel depth of 51.0 mm, a clamp size of 31, a bore O1 of 13.5 mm, and a connecting angle of 105.0 degrees.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause starter motor applications can vary by flywheel setup, mounting pattern, and vehicle electrical system, the part number MS696 and the listed measurements should be matched carefully to the vehicle already in service. The fitment information provided references MAN and Mercedes-Benz heavy vehicle applications, including buses and trucks in several model families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOE product\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24V heavy commercial starter motor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e9th clockwise rotation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number MS696\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne year warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 mounting bores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Mahle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct type: Starter motor heavy comm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct group 1: Rotating electrical\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct group 2: Starter motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit of measure: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart no.: MS696\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVoltage: 24V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotation: 9th CW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConfirmed fitment references\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMAN HOCL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMAN LION'S COMFORT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMAN M90\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMAN ÜL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz Citaro (O 530)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz MK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz NG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMercedes-Benz O 303\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, compare the part number MS696 against the starter already fitted to the vehicle, then check the 24V electrical system, 9th clockwise rotation, and the 3-bolt mounting pattern. The listed mounting points diameter of 146.0 mm and flywheel depth of 51.0 mm are practical checks that help confirm the starter will suit the application physically as well as electrically.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fitment references supplied include MAN and Mercedes-Benz bus and truck families, but those names alone should not be treated as a guarantee. Within those ranges, model year, engine setup, flywheel specification, and starter variant can still differ, so the safest approach is to confirm the original part number and all relevant dimensions before fitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are replacing a failed starter, it is worth comparing the old unit side by side with this Mahle item before installation. Checking the wiring position, mounting hole spacing, and engagement depth can prevent unnecessary downtime, especially where the vehicle has had previous repairs or component changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number MS696 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type STARTER MOTOR HEAVY COMM, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty One Year, Bore O 1 13.5, For flywheel depth 51.0, Mounting points diameter 146.0, Packaging width 20.60, Product Group 2 STARTER MOTORS, Part No. MS696.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional published details for cross-checking include Brand MAHLE, Description Mahle Starter Motor 24V 9Th CW, Clamp 31, Number of mounting bores 3, Connecting Angle [Degree] 105.0, Packaging length 45.2, Packaging height 15.90, Product Group 1 ROTATING ELECTRICAL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMahle Starter Motor 24V 9Th CW. Part number MS696 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor part number MS696, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a starter motor heavy comm in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable application references include MAN HOCL, MAN HOCL 1992, MAN LION´S COMFORT, MAN LION´S COMFORT 1996, MERCEDES-BENZ CITARO (O 530), MERCEDES-BENZ CITARO (O 530) 1998. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe listed warranty is One Year. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility note:\u003c\/strong\u003e Please confirm compatibility by matching part number MS696, 24V specification, 9th clockwise rotation, mounting pattern, and the vehicle application details before ordering.
