Squeegee B015-3000B

The squeegee (part# B015-3000B) is the flexible wiper blade that runs across the back of the nozzle on the Tornado Roam 97300, channeling airflow and finishing the pass on hard floors and low carpet.

On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, the squeegee seals the trailing edge of the cleaning head so the vacuum pulls debris toward the suction inlet instead of letting it slip past. A supple, intact squeegee maintains the pressure differential that gives the nozzle its edge-to-edge pickup, and it protects the baseplate lip from wear.

Replace the squeegee when the blade is nicked, hardened, curled, or leaving streaks and uncollected debris behind the machine. A worn squeegee is a common cause of reduced pickup on bare floors and of fine grit being left in a line as the head lifts. It is an inexpensive, high-impact wear item worth renewing at the first sign of streaking.
