Lift Bracket X9107
$55.99
Genuine Tacony OEM lift bracket (part# X9107) for the Tornado Marathon SE 900 (Model 98170) and Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S. Part of the linkage that raises and lowers the brush.
The Lift Bracket (part# X9107) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part from the brush assembly of the Tornado Marathon SE 900 self-contained carpet extractor. It is the bracket in the brush lift linkage that transfers pedal movement to the brush assembly.
What the Lift Bracket does
The lift mechanism is what lets an operator drop the brush for cleaning and raise it for transport, and every part of that linkage has to hold its geometry for the brush to land at the right height each time. The bracket is a load-carrying link in that chain, so wear at its pivot or a bend in the arm changes brush height without anything looking obviously broken, and the machine simply starts agitating too lightly or digging in.
When to replace the Lift Bracket (X9107)
Replace it when it is cracked, bent, or the pivot holes have worn oval, and when the brush no longer sits at a consistent height between lifts. Play that can be felt at the pedal, with the mechanism otherwise sound, usually traces back to a worn bracket or pivot.
Lift Bracket X9107 — fitment and installation notes
Inspect the pivots, pins and retaining hardware while the linkage is apart, since replacing one worn link in a worn mechanism achieves very little. Reassemble without forcing anything, and set and check the brush height through a full lift and lower cycle before the machine returns to service. 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.
