Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, match the part number HXS261, the 12V rating, 9-tooth pinion, clockwise rotation and Hitachi style against the vehicle or machine currently fitted. Those details are the quickest way to avoid a mismatch when replacing a starter motor.

The mounting and size details matter as much as the electrical rating. This unit has a 2-hole mount, 110mm mount centres A, 82mm flange diameter, 10mm mount hole diameter and 192mm overall length, so the physical fit needs to align with the existing starter and bellhousing space.

The listed 1.4kW power rating and dry clutch application are relevant when checking replacement suitability. If the original unit differs in tooth count, rotation, pinion diameter or mount style, do not assume interchangeability even if the vehicle make appears in the fitment list.

Warranty coverage is 3 years for passenger use and 1 year for commercial use on this new unit. If the starter is for commercial, industrial or forklift use, confirm the application carefully before purchase so the warranty category and fitment details both make sense for your job.

For mixed-fitment items like this, the safest approach is to compare the existing starter’s tag, pinion count, rotation and dimensions with the listed measurements here. A close visual match is not enough on its own when the starter is a Hitachi-style unit with a specific 9-tooth configuration.

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 HXS261 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.
