Key Features
- OEM Hydraulic Precision — Manufactured to Multiquip's original specification, this diverter valve delivers accurate flow control and directional switching within the hydraulic system, maintaining the pressure balance your trowel depends on.
- 1/2 MNPT Threaded Connection — The 1/2 MNPT male pipe thread sizing matches the original port configuration, allowing direct installation into existing hydraulic line fittings without adapters or modification.
- Confirmed Fitment for MD and LD Series Trowels — Verified for MD80, MD105, and LD60 hydrostatic ride-on power trowels, covering both mid-sized and light-duty platforms in the Multiquip trowel lineup.
- Consistent Blade and Drive Response — A properly functioning diverter valve ensures hydraulic flow is directed accurately, keeping blade pitch control and drive response crisp and predictable during finishing operations.
- Hydraulic System Integrity — A worn or failed diverter valve can cause erratic blade behavior, loss of drive control, or hydraulic fluid misdirection — replacing it promptly with a genuine OEM part restores safe, predictable machine operation.
A 3-way diverter valve controls the direction of hydraulic fluid flow within the trowel's hydraulic circuit, routing fluid between multiple outlets depending on the operational demand of the machine. On hydrostatic ride-on trowels like the MD and LD series, this valve plays a critical role in managing the hydraulic pressure that governs blade pitch adjustment and drive function. When the valve wears or fails, operators may experience sluggish or unresponsive controls, inconsistent blade pitch, or loss of drive — all of which compromise both finishing quality and operator safety.
