The Qualified Made In The USA Label (part# X1003) is a genuine Tacony OEM country-of-origin label used on the 30-inch wide-area machines listed below. It is the country-of-origin marking applied to the chassis, a 1.618 by 1.618 inch printed decal stating that the machine qualifies as made in the USA. It is a genuine Tacony OEM part shared across CleanMax, Powr-Flite and Tornado machines — see the full compatibility list below. It also fits the Tornado 98168 20″ Marathon 1200 carpet extractor (12 Gallon 115V), Series P.
What the Qualified Made In The USA Label does
This label is the machine stating its country-of-origin qualification on the product itself. Origin marking is not decorative — it is a claim with legal weight behind it, and it belongs on the machine as built rather than only on the carton or the paperwork, both of which are long gone by the time a machine is in service.
Where it earns its keep is procurement. Institutional, municipal and federal buyers frequently have domestic-preference requirements, and the marking on the machine is what an auditor or purchasing officer looks for when a unit is checked against the contract it was bought under. A machine whose origin label has worn away can fail that check even though nothing about the machine itself has changed.
When to replace the Qualified Made In The USA Label (X1003)
Replace it when the print has faded or bleached, when the surface has been abraded dull, when a corner has lifted, or when it has been peeled off during a housing repair. Because it is a compliance marking rather than a cosmetic one, an unreadable label is worth replacing straight away rather than leaving until the machine next comes in for service.
Made In The USA Label — fitment and installation notes
Apply it in the original position, since origin markings are expected in a consistent and visible place and moving one to a convenient blank panel undermines the point. Clean and dry the mounting area, remove old adhesive completely so the decal lies flat with no ridge beneath it, and press from one edge outward to keep air from being trapped under the print. Let the adhesive set before the machine goes back into wet service.
