SEBO Exhaust Filter Cover for AUTOMATIC X4 Boost — Graphite

SEBO's exploded view for the AUTOMATIC X4 Boost carries this molding at position 103 under its factory color name, gray black. The catalog sells the same piece as graphite, part 5711GS. Whichever label you meet first, it is the panel across the exhaust outlet at the back of the machine.

Treat it as a clamp with a lid's job description. It bears down on the exhaust filter so the pack cannot lift at a corner, and that is the only thing preventing used air from taking a shortcut past the medium. Motor heat and years of service make the plastic less forgiving, and the small lugs holding the panel down are what surrender first. After that the cover sits proud, hums along with the motor, and stops pinning the filter — the point at which a gray shadow starts building on whatever wall the vacuum is parked against.

Since the bay has to be opened to fit it, this is a sensible moment to put a new exhaust filter in behind the panel rather than doing the job twice. Shoppers reach this molding under a few different names — SEBO graphite exhaust cover, X4 Boost rear filter panel, gray black filter cover, part 5711GS — and every one of them describes the same component.
