Genuine Tornado Roam replacement Baseplate Wheel (part# B370-1843) for the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C cordless commercial upright vacuum.

The baseplate wheel (part# B370-1843) is one of the load-bearing wheels mounted to the underside of the cleaning head on the Tornado Roam 97300, carrying the nozzle smoothly across carpet and hard floors.
On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, the baseplate wheels set and maintain the ride height of the nozzle so the brushroll meets the carpet at the correct depth. Free-rolling wheels let the machine glide with minimal push effort and keep the cleaning head level, which is what keeps brush contact — and pickup — even across the full width.
Replace a baseplate wheel if it is cracked, flat-spotted, seized, or wobbling on its axle. Symptoms include a head that drags or pushes hard, scraping or thumping as you vacuum, and uneven brush wear from a nozzle that no longer sits level. Wheels are a routine wear item on high-traffic commercial machines and are inexpensive to renew.
