Rear Wheel (See #44) C220-0531C

The Rear Wheel with Bushing (part# C220-0531C) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part compatible with 21 models from 4 Tacony brands (Tornado, Riccar, Simplicity and CleanMax). This is a shared Tacony OEM part — the same C220-0531C fits Tornado, Riccar, Simplicity and CleanMax models — see the full Compatible Models list below.

On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, the rear wheels carry the trailing weight of the nozzle and set the rear ride height. The integrated bushing gives the wheel a low-friction bearing so it rolls quietly and true; together they keep the head level so the brushroll and squeegee stay in even contact across the pass.

Replace the rear wheel and bushing when the wheel is flat-spotted, cracked, or noisy, or when a worn bushing lets it wobble or squeal. A dragging or tilted rear end shows up as hard pushing, uneven wear, and thumping on hard floors. The wheel and bushing come as a unit, so the bearing is renewed at the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the rear wheel with bushing do?

The rear wheel with bushing (part# C220-0531C) is a complete rear roller-and-bushing unit that supports the back of the cleaning head and carries its weight as the machine rolls. It is what lets the tail of the head follow smoothly behind the nozzle.

How is the rear wheel different from the front wheel?

This is the larger rear roller assembly that supports the back of the head, distinct from the front wheel (C010-2714B) at the leading edge. Match C220-0531C when it is the rear roller that is worn.

Does the rear wheel include its bushing?

Yes — it is supplied as the roller and bushing together, so both wear surfaces are renewed in one part. That keeps the rear of the head rolling quietly and true.

Which machines use the rear wheel with bushing (part# C220-0531C)?

It fits the Tornado Roam 97300 and 97300C; the Compatible Models list above shows the machines that share it (see #44 on the schematic).
