The Wacker Neuson Lift Tube is a genuine OEM component designed for CT36 and CT48 series walk-behind concrete power trowels. As a direct OEM part, it is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring correct form and function across the full range of compatible machines. Fitment covers an extensive lineup including the CT36-5A, CT36-6, CT36-8A, CT36-9, CT36-9-V, CT36-400E, CT36-X, CT48-8A, CT48-9, CT48-11A, CT48-13A-V, and their respective variants.

Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to original design tolerances, ensuring the Lift Tube seats, moves, and loads exactly as Wacker Neuson intended for concrete trowel applications.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Matches the original mounting geometry of CT36 and CT48 trowels, so installation follows the same procedure as the factory-fitted part.
- Broad CT-Series Compatibility: — Covers CT36 and CT48 models across multiple configurations including 5A, 6, 8A, 8A-V, 9, 9-V, 11A, 13A-V, 400E, X, and C-suffix variants.
- Smooth Blade-Pitch Adjustment: — A correctly functioning Lift Tube allows the operator to dial in blade pitch precisely, directly affecting surface finish quality on freshly poured concrete slabs.
- OEM Part Number Verified: — Part number 5000174722 is confirmed against Wacker Neuson's published parts documentation for the CT36 and CT48 trowel families.
The Lift Tube is a structural component within the pitch-adjustment mechanism of a walk-behind concrete power trowel. It transmits the operator's handle input to the rotor assembly, allowing the blade pitch angle to be increased or decreased to control finishing pressure and surface texture. When the Lift Tube is worn, bent, or damaged, the trowel loses consistent pitch response — making it difficult to achieve a uniform finish and forcing the operator to compensate manually throughout the pass.
