Safety Tape X9122

The Safety Tape (part# X9122) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part from the brush assembly of the Tornado Marathon SE 900 self-contained carpet extractor. It is the high-visibility adhesive tape applied to the machine as a safety marking.

What the Safety Tape does

Safety tape works by being noticed before anything else, which is why it is a specified part rather than something to improvise with whatever is in the van. It marks the edges and hazards that people walk into on a busy site, and on a machine that is often used in low light or in occupied buildings it is doing genuine work. Tape that has gone dull or dirty has stopped being high-visibility and is no longer doing the job it was fitted for.

When to replace the Safety Tape (X9122)

Replace it when it has faded, been abraded dull, lifted at the edges, or been peeled away in sections. Chemical splash and repeated cleaning both take the finish off it faster than the adhesive fails, so judge it by how it looks at a glance rather than by whether it is still stuck down.

Safety Tape X9122 — fitment and installation notes

Apply it in the position the original occupied, since placement is what makes a marking effective. Clean and dry the surface, remove old adhesive completely so the new tape lies flat, and press from one end so no air is trapped underneath. 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.

• Tornado Marathon SE 900 — Model 98170
• Powr-Flite Prowler PFX900S
