The Multiquip 560020 Lift and Turn Latch is a genuine OEM component designed for Whiteman hydrostatic ride-on power trowels including the HTX44, STX55, STXD6i, and HTXD6i series. As a direct Multiquip OEM replacement, part 560020 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original hardware installed at the factory. Confirmed fitment spans the HTX44K4, HTX44K5, HTX44Y4, HTX44Y5, STX55J6, STX55Y6, STXD6i, and HTXD6i models. When your latch shows wear, stiffness, or fails to hold securely, replacing it with the correct OEM part ensures the access panel or enclosure operates exactly as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured by Multiquip to original hardware tolerances, ensuring the latch mechanism engages and releases with the same tactile resistance and holding force as the part it replaces.
- Lift-and-Turn Mechanism — The quarter-turn action installs directly into the existing panel cutout with no modification to surrounding bodywork or enclosure panels.
- Broad Series Fitment — Verified for HTX44K4, HTX44K5, HTX44Y4, HTX44Y5, STX55J6, STX55Y6, STXD6i, and HTXD6i Whiteman ride-on trowels under a single part number.
- Secure Panel Retention — A properly functioning latch keeps engine compartment and access panels firmly closed during operation, preventing panels from rattling or opening unexpectedly under vibration.
- Operational Safety Relevance — A failed or missing latch on a ride-on trowel can expose moving components or allow panel movement during use; replacing promptly with OEM part 560020 restores the intended barrier and access control.
A lift and turn latch is a quarter-turn fastener used to secure access panels, engine compartment covers, or enclosure doors on ride-on power trowels. To open, the operator lifts and rotates the handle to disengage the keeper; releasing it allows the latch to lock the panel closed under spring tension. When the latch wears or breaks, panels can work loose during machine operation, exposing internal components to debris and creating a potential hazard for the operator. Replacing the latch promptly keeps access points secure and the machine operating as designed.
