Tornado Tempest Strap Fixing Plate K50074610

The Tornado Tempest strap fixing plate (part# K50074610) is the plate that anchors a retaining strap on the TV400-W26-U cordless sweeper. It appears on two assemblies — battery housing and controls, and the cover — so one part number covers both positions.

A fixing plate exists because a strap anchored directly to a moulding would pull through it. The plate spreads the load of the strap across a wider area of plastic, and it is the difference between a strap that holds for the life of the machine and one that tears its mounting out the first time the machine is lifted awkwardly by it.

Compatible Models for the Strap Fixing Plate

• Tornado Tempest Wide-Area Cordless Carpet Vacuum Sweeper — Model TV400-W26-U

When to replace it

• The plate is bent, cracked or has pulled through its mounting.
• Its mounting hole is elongated.
• The strap is loose at the anchor even when its fastener is tight.
• Corrosion has weakened the plate or seized its fixing.
• The moulding beneath it shows signs of the plate having moved.

Fitting notes

Remove the battery pack before starting. Inspect the moulding under the plate when it is off — if the plastic has already been crushed or torn, a new plate alone will not restore the anchor. Fit the plate flat, tighten evenly, and load-test the strap by hand before putting the machine back into service.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the strap fixing plate do on the Tornado Tempest?

It anchors a retaining strap and spreads the strap’s load across a wider area of the moulding, so the strap cannot pull through the plastic.

How do I know if my strap fixing plate needs replacing?

If it is bent or cracked, its mounting hole has elongated, or the strap is loose at the anchor even with its fastener tight. Check the moulding underneath as well — crushed plastic needs attention too.

What models is the strap fixing plate (part# K50074610) compatible with?

The Tornado Tempest TV400-W26-U wide-area cordless carpet sweeper, where it is used on both the battery housing and controls and the cover assemblies.
