Battery Harness Frame X1382

The Battery Harness Frame (part# X1382) is a genuine Tacony OEM structural part used on cordless backpack vacuums across the Tornado, CleanMax and Powr-Flite ranges. It is the rigid frame that sits between the machine body and the shoulder harness, carrying the operator’s load through the rivets and shoulder hardware rather than through the plastic housing.

Compatible Models for the Harness Frame

• Tornado Pac-Vac 6 Roam — Models 93016, 93016B-1 and 93016C-1
• CleanMax CMBP-6CL cordless backpack vacuum
• Powr-Flite Comfort Pro Freedom — CPF6P, CPF6P-1C and CPF6S

When to replace it: the frame is cracked or has a broken mounting ear; a rivet hole has elongated or torn out so the harness no longer sits square on the operator’s back; the frame has bent after a drop; or the machine has started to sit crooked and load one shoulder. A harness frame carries the whole weight of a loaded backpack machine all shift, so a cracked one is a comfort problem first and a housing-damage problem shortly after.

Replacing it means taking the harness off at the shoulder rivets, transferring the strap hardware to the new frame and refitting. It is worth renewing the shoulder rivets at the same time — they are inexpensive and they are what elongated the holes in the first place if the old frame failed at a mounting point.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the harness frame do on a cordless backpack vacuum?

It is the rigid frame between the machine body and the shoulder harness. It transfers the weight of the machine into the harness through the shoulder rivets, so the plastic housing is not carrying the operator’s load.

How do I know if my harness frame needs replacing?

Replace it when it is cracked, when a mounting ear has broken, when a rivet hole has elongated or torn so the harness will not sit square, or when the frame has bent and the machine rides crooked on your back.

What models is the Harness Frame (part# X1382) compatible with?

The Tornado Pac-Vac 6 Roam in all three revisions (93016, 93016B-1 and 93016C-1), the CleanMax CMBP-6CL, and the Powr-Flite Comfort Pro Freedom CPF6P, CPF6P-1C and CPF6S.
