SEBO Exhaust Filter Catch f...
$6.99
Product details
Red AUTOMATIC X4 uprights hide a gray black catch behind their panels, and the AUTOMATIC X4 Boost takes the identical component. Its number is 5712GS, and it is drawn as item 101 for these machines, right at the lip of the exhaust filter recess.
All this piece has to do is keep the rear exhaust panel pressed home. It deflects a little each time that bay is opened for a filter change, and after enough cycles the hook chips, or the arm simply stops pushing hard enough to hold engagement. What follows is a panel that migrates under vibration until it swings clear, at which point the exhaust is no longer routed cleanly through the filter media. Owners tend to report the sound before the fault: an unfamiliar hum or rasp toward the rear once the motor is working, then a panel that refuses to stay latched however firmly it is pushed. Seating a replacement in the old location and listening for a clean click is the whole repair.

It is a good illustration of why colour matching cannot be done from the outside of the machine alone: a red X4 carries red trim everywhere it shows and gray black where it does not. Anyone servicing the exhaust end normally has the filter out at the same time, so the media is worth a look while the panel is off. Searches that land here take in the number alone, a SEBO exhaust filter catch for an X4, and a gray black rear cover latch for an X4 Boost. Ships in 2–5 business days.
