Drive System Theory of Operation

The HTN-SERIES Ride-On Power Trowel is equipped with a "Torque Converter" which supplies torque to both the left and right gearboxes.

The function of the torque converter is to automatically deliver the correct amount of torque required by the trowel under all load conditions.This enables the trowel to deliver the necessary torque for float pan applications and the high rotor speeds required for burnishing concrete.

The torque converter used in the HTN SERIES Ride-On Power Trowel is a variable pitch pulley type (Figure 22) connected by a drive belt.

Drive Pulley

The "Drive Pulley" uses centrifugal force (Figures 23 and 24) to create a belt squeeze force transmitted at the pulley faces. This condition functions as an automatic clutch and transmission.
