SEBO Handle Catch for Autom...

Product details
Reclining the handle on an AUTOMATIC X1 or AUTOMATIC X2 works because a small moulded catch drops into place and holds the chosen angle. SEBO 5098GS is that catch in gray black, and it is the number to order when the handle will not stay where it is put, or folds forward the moment the machine is pushed.
The catch is loaded every time the handle is raised or lowered, and it is the engagement faces that go first: they round off gradually until the lock becomes a suggestion rather than a stop. Cracking around the pivot is the other common ending, usually after the machine has been carried by the handle or tipped over. Neither can be adjusted out from elsewhere, because there is nothing else in the joint doing the holding. A new catch gives back the firm click that tells you the handle is set, and it goes in as a direct swap with no modification to the surrounding parts.

Work the handle through its full travel after fitting and confirm the catch engages cleanly at each stop. If it still slips with a new catch in place, the lock plate behind it has almost certainly worn and SEBO 5099 is the next part to look at.
