Baseplate Assembly D220-0414

Used across Tornado, Riccar, Simplicity and CleanMax machines, the Baseplate Assembly (part# D220-0414) is a genuine Tacony OEM part. Made by Tacony, the D220-0414 is used across Tornado, Riccar, Simplicity and CleanMax models — see the full Compatible Models list below.

On the Tornado Roam / 97300 / 97300C, this assembly saves you from sourcing the baseplate, front and rear wheels, and axles separately. It sets the ride height of the cleaning head, carries the brushroll compartment, and provides the sealing surface for the squeegee and baseplate cover, so a complete, straight assembly keeps airflow tight at the brush for full-width pickup.

Choose the full baseplate assembly when the original is cracked or warped, when multiple wheels or axles are worn, or after impact damage has left the head rocking or scraping. Signs include uneven brush contact, a cleaning head that no longer glides smoothly, and suction loss from air leaking around a distorted base. Installing it as a unit guarantees the wheels and mounting points line up correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the baseplate assembly?

The baseplate assembly (part# D220-0414) is the complete, ready-to-install underside of the cleaning head — the molded baseplate already fitted with its wheels and axles. It is a drop-in way to renew the whole bottom of the head at once.

How is the assembly different from the bare baseplate?

The assembly includes the wheels and axles pre-mounted, whereas the bare baseplate (B220-0314) is just the plate. Pick D220-0414 when several underside parts are worn and you want a single-part refresh.

When should I choose the baseplate assembly?

When the baseplate plus its wheels and axles are all worn or damaged, the assembly saves rebuilding the underside piece by piece. It arrives aligned and ready to bolt on.

Which vacuums use the baseplate assembly (part# D220-0414)?

It fits the Tornado Roam 97300 and 97300C — the Compatible Models list above shows every compatible machine.
