Miele S7 / U1 Wheel Mechanism – 6873412
The Genuine Miele Wheel Mechanism (Part #6873412) is a key structural component of the S7 and U1 upright vacuum base. This assembly connects to the lower casing and supports the vacuum’s ability to properly lock into the upright position.
This part is often the cause when a Miele upright does not want to stand upright or feels unstable. In many cases, the plastic housing around the metal pins can crack or break, allowing the internal gear to slip out of position.
