Genuine Tacony Handle Grip (part# C431-3614) – commercial top-of-handle grip housing the two-speed switch. Fits CleanMax Zoom ZM-400/ZM-600 and Riccar/Simplicity Ultralite commercial uprights. In stock, Crystal MN. 763-535-0770.

The Handle Grip C431-3614 is the genuine Tacony OEM commercial handle grip assembly shared across CleanMax, Riccar, and Simplicity ultra-light-weight commercial uprights. It is the molded grip at the top of the handle that the operator holds, and it houses the two-speed switch, so it is one of the most-handled parts on the machine.

Compatible Models for the Handle Grip C431-3614

This is a shared Tacony part (item #2 in the CleanMax Zoom Handle & Bag assembly, specified for the ZM-400 and ZM-600) used across multiple brands:

The Handle Grip C431-3614 is where the operator’s hand and the machine’s controls meet: it provides the hold for steering and encloses the switch wiring. Because it is gripped and its switch is worked constantly, the grip eventually cracks, loosens, or the switch pocket wears — at which point the assembly needs replacing to keep the machine comfortable and safe to run.

Replace the Handle Grip C431-3614 when it is cracked or broken, when it no longer holds the switch firmly, or when it has worked loose on the handle. Replacing the grip assembly restores a secure hold and a properly seated switch. Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing CleanMax, Riccar, and Simplicity equipment since 1956 and supplies the genuine Tacony grip.

Installation transfers the switch and wiring into the new grip and mounts it on the handle — disconnect the vacuum from power first and note the switch leads before removing the old grip.
