SEBO Pastel Mint Power Head Cover for ET-1 Power Heads Without Switch

Machine 91697AM left the factory wearing this shade. Part 20337CMET is the pastel mint top cover for the SEBO ET-1 power head in the variant built without an on/off switch, and it is the number to quote when a mint AIRBELT K3 PREMIUM needs its nozzle shell renewed. The same cover serves ET-1 heads supplied on the AIRBELT E3 Premium.

Power head covers take their damage from doorways, stair edges and furniture legs rather than from wear, which means a cracked one usually sits on a head that is mechanically fine underneath. That is the case for renewing the shell alone: the belt, the roll and the drive all stay where they are, and the machine comes back looking like a machine somebody has looked after. A split left alone rarely stays the same size, since the moulding flexes a little at every knock and the crack runs on from where it started.

Mint sits alongside pastel blue and pastel pink in this part of the SEBO colour range, so check the machine rather than a photograph when deciding between them. Confirm the switch arrangement too: this shell has a plain top with no rocker aperture, and a head with a switch built into the cover needs a different number. Those two answers — shade and switch — settle the order between them.

Once the cover is off, it is worth looking at what sits beneath. Hair wound tight against the roll ends, a belt that has gone slack, or a bearing block with visible play are all easier to deal with while the head is open than a fortnight later.
