HHN-34TVD • RIDE-ON POWER TROWEL — OPERATION MANUAL — REV. #1 (05/08/06) — PAGE 33
The HHN 34TVD trowel is equipped with a "Torque Converter"
which supplies torque to both the left and right gear boxes.
The function of the a 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 is of the variable pitch pulley type, (Figure 23)
connected by a drive belt.
