Wheel 12″ x 1-3/4″ X9066

The Wheel 12″ x 1-3/4″ (part# X9066) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part from the chassis assembly of the Tornado Marathon SE 900 self-contained carpet extractor. It is the large diameter transport wheel that carries the machine and lets it be rolled and tipped when loaded.

What the Wheel 12″ x 1-3/4″ does

Wheel diameter is doing real work on a machine that can weigh several hundred pounds with full tanks. A twelve inch wheel rolls over a threshold, a cord or a transition strip that would stop a small caster dead, and it makes the machine tippable so it can be walked up a step or into a van. The width spreads that weight so the wheel does not print into soft flooring while the machine sits.

When to replace the Wheel 12″ x 1-3/4″ (X9066)

Replace it when the tread is worn flat or has chunked out, when the hub is worn oval or wobbles on its axle, or when the wheel has cracked at the hub or spokes. A machine that pulls to one side, or a wheel that squeals or judders when rolled, is telling you something in the hub has failed.

Wheel X9066 — fitment and installation notes

Replace wheels in pairs where you can, since a new wheel next to a worn one puts the machine out of level and makes it steer. Check the axle and any bushing while the wheel is off, and refit the original retaining hardware rather than substituting something that merely fits. Tacony builds the Tornado Marathon SE 900 and the Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S on a single machine platform, so this component carries across both brands rather than belonging to either one. It is a shared Tacony component and may fit additional models beyond those listed — call us and we will confirm against your serial number.
