SEBO Silver Handle Cover for AUTOMATIC X7 and X8 Uprights

The silver shell that closes over the handle tube on SEBO's larger uprights is stocked as 51052SB. It caps the handle assembly and keeps the fixings and the cable runs beneath it enclosed and out of the way.

Because the handle is gripped, leaned on and swung against door frames, its cover is among the first cosmetic parts to craze or work loose. The sequence is familiar to anyone who services these machines: a screw boss cracks, the cover starts lifting at one corner, the exposed edge then catches on everything it passes, and what began as a small split ends with a piece missing. Renewing it tidies the top of the machine and puts a solid, unbroken surface back under your hand.

• Part number: 51052SB, handle cover
• Colour: silver
• Where it sits: over the handle tube, enclosing the fixings and the cable run
• Fits: SEBO AUTOMATIC X7 Premium, AUTOMATIC X7 Pet and AUTOMATIC X8
• Replace when: the moulding has cracked, a corner has broken away, or the cover no longer sits tight against the tube
• Fitting tip: note where each screw came from as you lift the old cover away, since they are not all the same length

Handle work rarely stops at one part, so the rest of the assembly is worth knowing while it is apart. The handle tube itself is 5187, the silver handle catch that holds the handle at its set angle is 1859SB, the switch is 05113 under silver switch cap 5160SB, the handle cable is 5298ER, and the cable clamp that keeps it dressed to the tube is 5162. Retaining rings come as single 5424SB1 or in the ten pack 5424SB. Anyone searching for a SEBO handle cover replacement for an X7 or X8 upright wants a genuine moulding rather than a near fit, since the screw positions are unforgiving.
