Tension Spring 30466

The Tension Spring (part# 30466) is a genuine Tacony OEM replacement part for the wide-area vacuum family, and it fits more than one machine. This Tension Spring loads the brush height-adjustment so the setting is held firmly in place, keeping the brush at the height the operator selects instead of drifting under vibration. Fits Tornado 93030, Tornado 93031, CleanMax CM-WAV and Powr-Flite PF2030.

Compatible Models for the Tension Spring

• Tornado 93030 30″ Clean-Air Carpetkeeper (Wide Area) — all series D through J
• Tornado 93031 30″ Clean-Air Carpetkeeper (Wide Area) 230V
• CleanMax CM-WAV Wide Area Vacuum
• Powr-Flite PF2030 30-Inch Wide Area Commercial Vacuum

The Tension Spring works every time the height is changed and holds constant load in between, so it fatigues, stretches, or breaks with age. When the spring weakens, the brush-height setting no longer stays put: it creeps, will not hold a detent, or the adjuster feels loose and floppy. Signs it needs replacing are a height setting that drifts in use, an adjuster with no spring tension or a broken spring, or a mechanism that flops between positions. A fresh spring restores firm, positive height adjustment. It hooks into the adjuster and is fitted during a brush-height service.

Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing Tacony equipment since 1956 and stocks the genuine 30466 part rather than a generic substitute. Browse the full Tornado CK 3030 wide-area vacuum for related parts, or read more on the Tornado manufacturer site.
