Tornado EB 30/1 Complete Sweep Tank K40705880

The complete sweep tank (part# K40705880) is the debris container on the Tornado EB 30/1 electric broom. The roller brush throws dust, grit and litter rearwards into it as the machine moves forward, and the tank holds that load until it is lifted out and emptied. It is supplied as a complete moulding ready to fit.

Why it is a wearing part on a sweeper

The tank is handled more often than any other part of the machine — out, emptied, knocked against a bin edge, back in, several times a day. That is what finishes them. The failures to look for: a cracked corner or a split along the base from being tapped out against hard edges; a distorted lip that no longer seats properly, which lets debris escape back under the machine; worn or broken catch features so the tank does not latch and rattles loose in use; and a scoured interior that will not release fine dust cleanly any more.

A tank that does not seat squarely is worth replacing rather than persevering with. The brush throws debris at the tank mouth, and if the mouth is not where it should be the machine appears to have lost pickup when in fact the debris is being collected and then dropped straight back out.

Keeping a tank in service longer

Empty it by tipping rather than striking it against the rim of a bin, and clear hair and string out of the mouth area regularly so the lip is not held off its seat.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the complete sweep tank do on the Tornado EB 30/1?

It is the debris container. The roller brush throws dust, grit and litter rearwards into the tank as the machine moves forward, and it holds the load until it is lifted out and emptied.

How do I know if my sweep tank needs replacing?

Look for a cracked corner or a split along the base from being knocked out against bin edges, a distorted lip that no longer seats and lets debris escape under the machine, or broken catch features that stop the tank latching. A tank that will not seat squarely can look exactly like a machine that has lost pickup.

Why does my broom seem to collect debris and then drop it again?

Usually a tank that is not seating squarely. The brush throws debris at the tank mouth, so if the mouth has shifted or the lip is distorted the load is collected and then released back under the machine.

What models is the complete sweep tank (part# K40705880) compatible with?

The Tornado EB 30/1 Electric Broom, Models 93220 and 93222.
