The Multiquip 846008 is a genuine OEM Air Cleaner Cover Knob designed for HHNG5 and MD80 series ride-on power trowels. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this knob matches the original component exactly, ensuring a correct, tool-free fit on the air cleaner cover assembly. It is the same part installed at the factory, so there is no guesswork on compatibility for HHNG5 or MD80 operators. Keep a spare on hand and your trowel's air filtration system stays accessible and properly secured whenever service is needed.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Molded to the same dimensional and material specification as the original, ensuring the cover seats and seals correctly every time it is fastened.
- Tool-Free Cover Access — Designed for hand-tightened removal and installation, so the air cleaner cover can be opened quickly during routine filter inspections without reaching for tools.
- Direct-Fit for HHNG5 and MD80 Trowels — Confirmed fitment for Whiteman HHNG5 and MD80 hydraulic ride-on power trowel models; verify your model before ordering.
- Protects Air Filtration Integrity — A secure, intact knob keeps the air cleaner cover firmly closed during operation, preventing dust and debris from bypassing the filter and entering the engine.
- Cost-Effective Preventive Replacement — A cracked or stripped knob left in service risks cover rattling loose under vibration; replacing it promptly with part 846008 avoids a minor issue becoming a costly engine contamination problem.
The air cleaner cover knob secures the access panel over the engine's air filtration assembly on ride-on power trowels. It allows operators to open and close the air cleaner housing quickly for filter inspection and cleaning without tools. When the knob is cracked, stripped, or missing, the cover can work loose during the high-vibration conditions typical of trowel operation, leaving the air intake unprotected and exposing the engine to debris ingestion.
