Carry Handle B220-6214

The Carry Handle (part# B220-6214) is the molded grip used to lift and carry these commercial uprights — up stairs, in and out of vehicles, and between floors. It takes the full weight of the machine every time it is picked up, so a genuine handle is molded to carry that repeated load without flexing or cracking.

What the Carry Handle does

The carry handle is the grip an operator uses to lift and move the machine — the single point that bears the full weight of the vacuum on every carry. It is molded to take that repeated load without flexing or cracking, and a sound handle also protects the operator from an awkward, unsafe lift. Because it is gripped and loaded constantly, it is a genuine replaceable part rather than part of a larger casting.

Signs the Carry Handle needs replacing

Replace the carry handle if it is cracked, split, or flexing under load, or if its mounting points are broken so it is loose or unsafe to lift by. Any sign that the handle could fail mid-lift — visible cracks, a loose feel, a creak under weight — means it should be replaced before someone drops the machine.

Installation and fit

Power down the machine. Remove the carry handle’s mounting fasteners, fit the new handle in the same position, tighten the fasteners securely, and test that it holds the machine’s weight solidly before relying on it. Twin City Vacuum has sold and serviced this equipment since 1956, and every part is sourced directly from Tacony. Browse more CleanMax parts, or learn more at CleanMax.
