Multiquip 11172 Left/Right Motion Rod

The Multiquip 11172 Left/Right Motion Rod is a genuine OEM component designed for Whiteman and HHN-series ride-on power trowels, including HHNG5, HHN34TVD, and HTN models. As a direct OEM replacement, this rod is manufactured to the same specifications as the original part, ensuring correct fit and consistent mechanical operation. Verified fitment covers HHNG5, EHHNK5, HHN34TVD, and HTN-series machines — always confirm your model code before ordering.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the original dimensional and material specifications, so the rod delivers the same motion geometry as the factory-installed component.
• Drop-In Fitment — Engineered to match the original mounting points and linkage connections on HHN and HTN-series trowels, so installation follows the standard service procedure without rework.
• Broad HHN/HTN Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across HHNG5, EHHNK5, HHN34TVD, and HTN ride-on power trowel models.
• Consistent Blade Direction Control — A correctly functioning motion rod maintains precise left/right steering response; a worn or damaged rod introduces slop in the control linkage, degrading operator accuracy on large finishing passes.
• Operator Safety Relevance — The left/right motion rod is a direct steering-linkage component; using a correctly rated OEM part helps preserve predictable machine response and reduces the risk of unintended directional drift during operation.

The left/right motion rod is a mechanical linkage component within the ride-on trowel's steering and directional control system. It transmits operator input into lateral movement of the machine, allowing the trowel to be guided accurately across a concrete slab. When this rod wears, bends, or develops play at its connection points, steering response becomes imprecise and the operator loses fine directional control — leading to uneven finishing and potential safety concerns on active pours.
