SEBO Cable Hook for AUTOMATIC X1, X2 and ESSENTIAL G1, G2 — Light Gray

A power cord that keeps unwinding on its own has usually lost one of its two hooks at the base, where the plastic takes the sharpest bend during a fast release. Part 5144HG is the light gray hook SEBO fits to the AUTOMATIC X1 and X2 and to the ESSENTIAL G1 and G2, and it gives the cord a firm anchor to wrap around between jobs.

Once a hook snaps, the cord drapes on the floor where it gets stepped on, rolled over and pulled through doorways. Fitting a fresh one keeps the wrap tight and takes the tugging off the cord's entry point into the machine — which is the failure that turns a two-dollar moulding into a cord replacement. The break itself is rarely dramatic: a hairline at the root of the hook, then one careless yank and it is gone.

This is the part behind searches for a SEBO cord hook, an X2 cable hook or a G1 cord wrap replacement. If the upper hook has gone as well, order two — they take the same abuse and rarely fail far apart. Colour is part of the order here: the hook is moulded in light gray to sit against the light gray housing these four machines use, so a darker replacement announces itself from across the room.
