The Multiquip 2449 Battery Box Gr. U1 is a genuine OEM component designed for HTN, JWN, and JTO series ride-on power trowels, including the HTNS5S-2, HTN28K, HTN27K, JWN24HTCSL/HSCSL, and HTN-KOHLER/ONAN/HONDA models. As a direct OEM replacement, part 2449 is built to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a correct, hassle-free installation with no guesswork on fitment. Sourced directly through Multiquip's authorized parts network, this battery box delivers the confidence of a factory-matched component for your ride-on trowel fleet.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the same dimensional and material standards as the original battery box, ensuring proper retention and secure battery mounting on your trowel.
- Direct-Swap Installation — Matches the original mounting footprint and hardware points of the HTN and JWN series trowels, so the replacement drops in without rework or fabrication.
- Broad HTN/JWN/JTO Series Compatibility — Confirmed fitment across HTNS5S-2, HTN28K, HTN27K, JWN24HTCSL/HSCSL, HTN-KOHLER/ONAN/HONDA, and JTO series ride-on power trowels.
- Protects Electrical Starting System — A properly seated battery box holds the Group U1 battery securely, preventing vibration-related terminal damage that can cause intermittent starting failures or electrical faults during operation.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — Correct battery containment is essential on ride-on trowel equipment; this OEM housing maintains proper battery isolation and reduces the risk of terminal contact with the machine frame.
The battery box on a ride-on power trowel houses and secures the Group U1 battery that powers the machine's electric start system and onboard electrical circuits. A secure, intact battery box keeps the battery locked in position and protected from the constant vibration produced during troweling operations. When the battery box cracks, breaks, or loses its mounting integrity, the battery can shift during use, leading to loose terminal connections, intermittent starting issues, or potential short circuits — any of which can sideline a trowel mid-pour at the worst possible moment.
