SEBO Front Cover Assembly for X1 and X2 Uprights — White

Where a single cracked panel would otherwise mean sourcing clips, trim and fixings separately, part 5185GW supplies the white front cover for the SEBO X1 and the SEBO X2 as a finished assembly with its integrated fittings already in place.

The front of an upright takes knocks that the rest of the machine never sees. Stair nosings on the way up, door frames on the way through, furniture legs whenever the head is swung around one. A cover that has broken once tends to keep breaking along the same line, because the crack becomes the weak point that every subsequent impact finds, and patching it rarely holds for long. Behind the moulding sit the nozzle and airflow components it exists to shield, so a broken front is not purely a cosmetic problem, however much it looks like one.

Taking the complete assembly puts the entire front face back to standard in one operation. It mounts on the original screw bosses and locating points with nothing to modify, which is the practical difference between an afternoon's work and a job that turns into a hunt for individual clips that may or may not still be available. For anyone restoring a long-serving X1 or X2 rather than simply patching it, this is the part that makes the machine look and close the way it did new.

Hold the new cover against the old one before fitting to confirm the colour match, since white mouldings on a machine that has seen years of service can have aged away from the shade they left the factory in. The white filter cover for the same models is SEBO 5007GW and the white brush roller release is SEBO 5102GW. Genuine SEBO X1 front cover complete, X2 front housing assembly, part 5185GW.
