Western Plows Part # 86792

Primary Gearbox Cover Kit

Western Part # 86792 is a Primary Gearbox Cover Kit designed for the gearbox assembly found in various Western, Fisher, and SnowEx electric hopper spreaders, including models like the Western Tornado and Striker, and Fisher Poly-Caster and Steel-Caster. This kit is a crucial component for maintaining the integrity and performance of your snow spreading equipment.

The primary gearbox cover acts as a protective shield for the internal gears and mechanisms of the spreader’s gearbox, safeguarding them from harsh winter elements such as moisture, salt, ice, and debris. This kit typically includes the cover itself, which often has a 3-3/8″ outer diameter, along with any necessary fasteners like bolts or seals to ensure a secure and watertight fit. Its durable construction is essential for preventing corrosion and contamination that could lead to premature wear or failure of the gearbox.

Replacing a damaged or missing primary gearbox cover with this genuine Western kit ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your spreader. It helps to keep lubricants contained and foreign materials out, allowing the gearbox to function smoothly and reliably, which is vital for consistent material spreading. Always refer to your specific Western spreader model’s documentation and parts diagrams to confirm compatibility with Part # 86792 and to follow proper installation procedures to ensure a tight and protective seal.
