The Multiquip 847147 Capacitor MD80 is a genuine OEM capacitor designed for the MD80 hydrostatic ride-on power trowel. Sourced directly from Multiquip, this part meets the exact electrical specifications required by the MD80 series, ensuring correct voltage handling and motor start performance. If you're servicing an MD80 and need a direct, confidence-inspiring replacement, part 847147 is the correct component for the job.
Key Features
- Correct Electrical Specification — Manufactured to the exact capacitance and voltage rating required by the MD80, ensuring proper motor energization and consistent operation.
- Genuine OEM Component — Sourced directly from Multiquip, this capacitor carries the same part number and specification as the original unit installed at the factory.
- Direct Fitment for MD80 Trowels — Engineered specifically for the MD80 hydrostatic ride-on power trowel series, dropping in without modification to the existing electrical circuit.
- Restores Full Blade Motor Performance — A failed or degraded capacitor can prevent the blade motor from starting or cause it to run inefficiently; replacing with this part restores normal trowel blade operation.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — Using the correct OEM-rated capacitor protects the motor windings and associated electrical components from voltage stress caused by an undersized or out-of-spec substitute.
A capacitor in a ride-on trowel provides the phase shift needed to start and run the electric motor that drives the finishing blades. Without a functioning capacitor, the blade motor may fail to start, run at reduced torque, or draw excessive current — all of which interrupt finishing work and can cause secondary damage to the motor itself. Replacing a worn or failed capacitor with the correct OEM unit restores proper motor starting torque and protects the drive system from unnecessary strain.
