The Multiquip 20165 Palm Handle Kit with Toggle Switch is a genuine OEM replacement designed for Whiteman ride-on power trowel models including STX55Y6, STX55J6, STX6H, STXD6i, HTX44Y4, HTX44Y5, HTX44K4, HTX44K5, HTX6H, HTXG6DF, HTXD6i, HHXG5, HHXD5, HHXD5-ES, and HHXDF4-DF5. As a direct OEM component sourced through Multiquip's authorized parts network, the 20165 is manufactured to the same specification as the original part installed at the factory. Fitting across the STX, HTX, and HHX series trowel families, this kit ensures the operator handle assembly functions exactly as intended — with the toggle switch correctly integrated into the palm handle unit.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the same specification as the original palm handle assembly, ensuring correct switch integration, grip geometry, and wiring interface for ride-on trowel operator controls.
- Complete Kit Format — Supplied as a full Palm Handle Kit with Toggle Switch included, so both the handle and control switch are replaced together for a complete, matched assembly.
- Broad STX, HTX, and HHX Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across STX55Y6, STX55J6, STX6H, STXD6i, HTX44 series, HTX6H, HTXG6DF, HTXD6i, HHXG5, HHXD5, HHXD5-ES, and HHXDF4-DF5 ride-on trowels.
- Operator Control Integrity — A worn or damaged palm handle or failed toggle switch can compromise the operator's ability to control trowel blade pitch and machine direction — replacing the full kit restores full, responsive control.
- Electrical Safety Relevance — The toggle switch is a key electrical control component; using an OEM-spec replacement maintains correct circuit behavior and prevents unintended switch failures during operation.
The palm handle assembly is the operator's primary physical interface with a ride-on power trowel, housing the toggle switch used to control critical machine functions such as blade pitch adjustment. The toggle switch embedded in the handle routes operator inputs to the trowel's hydraulic or mechanical control system, and a faulty or worn switch can result in loss of blade control or erratic machine response. Replacing the complete Palm Handle Kit with Toggle Switch — rather than individual components — ensures the switch and handle are correctly matched and installed as a single, reliable unit.
