The Multiquip 01281001 Timing Cover Assembly No. 3 is a genuine OEM component designed for a range of Multiquip equipment including MVH502DSB and MVH502DSB2 reversible plate compactors, MDR-9D power trowels, and MQ41TDH trash pumps. As a direct Multiquip OEM part, 01281001 is manufactured to the exact fit and dimensional tolerances required by the original engine assembly.

If you need to verify fitment for your specific unit, DHS Equipment's parts team is available to assist.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the precise dimensional and sealing tolerances of the original engine assembly, ensuring correct coverage and alignment of timing components.
- Direct-Mount Replacement — Engineered to align with original bolt patterns and gasket surfaces, allowing straightforward installation without the need for additional modification.
- Broad Equipment Compatibility — Fits MVH502DSB and MVH502DSB2 plate compactors, MDR-9D power trowels, and MQ41TDH trash pumps, making it a versatile stock item for mixed Multiquip fleets.
- Protects Critical Timing Components — A correctly seated timing cover shields internal timing gears or belts from debris, oil contamination, and impact damage that can lead to engine timing failure.
- Maintains Engine Integrity — Proper sealing at the timing cover face prevents oil leaks that, left unaddressed, can accelerate internal engine wear and lead to unplanned machine downtime.
The timing cover seals and protects the engine's timing mechanism — the gears, chain, or belt that synchronize the crankshaft and camshaft to control valve and ignition timing. Without a properly seated cover, the timing components are exposed to dirt, moisture, and physical damage, any of which can throw engine timing out of spec. A cracked, warped, or missing timing cover also allows engine oil to escape, which reduces lubrication to critical internal components and can result in accelerated wear or sudden engine failure. Replacing a damaged cover promptly is one of the more straightforward ways to protect a significant engine investment.
