Motor Cover X9015A

The Motor Cover (part# X9015A) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part from the brush assembly of the Tornado Marathon SE 900 self-contained carpet extractor. It is the cover that encloses the brush motor within the brush assembly housing.

What the Motor Cover does

The motor cover is a barrier and a guard at once. It keeps the spray and splash that a self-contained extractor generates constantly off a motor that does not enjoy either, and it keeps hands and clothing away from the running motor. It also holds the airflow around the motor to the path the design intended, which matters because a motor that is cooled by a defined flow does not cool the same way with a cover missing.

When to replace the Motor Cover (X9015A)

Replace it when it is cracked, warped, or has broken mounting points, and any time it is missing. Water tracks or corrosion on the motor itself are a sign the cover has already stopped doing its job even if it still looks serviceable.

Motor Cover X9015A — fitment and installation notes

Work with the machine unplugged and refit any seal or gasket rather than leaving it out. Check that the cover seats fully all round instead of being held off by a trapped wire or a piece of debris, and never run the machine with the cover off to make a diagnosis easier. 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.
