SEBO Handle Lock Plate for Automatic X1, X2 and Essential G1, G2

Behind the handle catch sits a flat lock plate that gives the catch something solid to bear against. SEBO 5099 is that plate. One number covers four machines, and it is the part most often missed when a handle problem survives a brand new catch.

Every time the handle is set or released, the load goes through the notches in this plate. They wear, the edges deform, and eventually the catch rides out of engagement under pressure even though the catch itself is perfect. From the driver's seat the two faults are identical: a handle that creeps forward, sits at the wrong angle, or drops when the machine is pulled backwards. The only way to tell them apart is to look at both parts, which is why they are usually renewed as a pair during a handle rebuild rather than one at a time.

Inspect the plate with a light behind it. Bright, polished notches with rounded shoulders mean it has been doing the catch's job for a while and will not hold a new catch either. Fitting both parts at once costs very little more than fitting one twice.
