The brush assembly is the part of the Tornado 98167 that does the actual scrubbing, and it is where most of the wear on this machine shows up first. The 17 in. carpet brush roller 19159 turns on the brush shaft 19160, which rides in two brush bearing blocks 19157 fitted with 608-2RS bearings 05209, bearing seals 19158 and bearing block gaskets 19228. Drive comes from the 1/4 HP 220-volt brush motor X9119-TI through the motor pulley 32175 and the brush pulley 19161, joined by belt 19233 — the single most commonly replaced item in this section. If you would rather not rebuild the roller yourself, the complete brush roller assembly 31806 arrives pre-built with the shaft, bearings and pulley already fitted. Solution reaches the carpet through the spraybar manifold 32187, held by the manifold retaining bracket weldment 19152, feeding three 95° nozzle and body assemblies X9139 through nylon connector 32186, swivel elbow 32189 and hose 32258. The brush shroud assembly 31754 seals against the base plate shroud gasket 19164 and is held closed by the shroud lever latch 19192, latch lever clamp 19156 and latch lever cap 19275. Twin City Vacuum has been selling and servicing Tornado equipment since 1956. Call 763-535-0770 or stop by 5415 West Broadway, Crystal, MN 55428.

Tornado 98167 Brush Assembly Parts – Frequently Asked Questions

What does the brush assembly do on the Tornado 98167?

The brush assembly agitates the carpet pile while solution is sprayed into it, so the dirt is loosened before the vacuum recovers it. The 17 in. carpet brush roller 19159 is belt-driven by the 1/4 HP 220-volt brush motor X9119-TI, and the spraybar manifold 32187 above it delivers solution through three 95° nozzles X9139. If the brush is not turning, the machine will still spray and vacuum but will clean noticeably worse.

How do I know when the Tornado 98167 brush roller or belt needs replacing?

Replace belt 19233 when the brush stalls under load, squeals on start-up, or you can see cracking or glazing on the belt. Replace the carpet brush roller 19159 when the bristles are splayed, worn shorter than the surrounding rows, or the roller wobbles. A wobble or a rumbling noise usually means the 608-2RS bearings 05209 or the bearing seals 19158 have failed rather than the roller itself.

Do I need the brush roller 19159 or the complete brush roller assembly 31806?

Order the carpet brush roller 19159 on its own if your shaft, bearings and pulley are still good and you are comfortable pressing the old roller off. Order the complete brush roller assembly 31806 if you want a drop-in replacement — it comes with the brush shaft 19160, bearings and brush pulley 19161 already fitted, and it also fits the Tornado 98166, 98168 and 98169.

Why is the spray bar on my Tornado 98167 not spraying evenly?

Uneven spray almost always traces to one blocked 95° nozzle and body X9139 rather than to the pump. Pull each nozzle and check the tip for mineral scale and carpet fibre. If all three nozzles are clear, look next at the inline strainer 32178 and the nylon connector 32186 feeding the spraybar manifold 32187, then at the manifold itself.

How do I order Tornado 98167 brush assembly parts or get help identifying one?

You can add any part on this page directly to your cart from its own product page, or call us at 763-535-0770. Our staff at 5415 West Broadway, Crystal, MN 55428 has been servicing Tornado equipment since 1956 and can confirm the right part against your machine’s serial number before you buy.

Brush parts wear together, so it is worth checking the main assembly hoses and the chassis assembly latch hardware while the shroud is off. The fast-moving wear items for this machine are gathered on the Tornado 98167 service parts page, and solution-side components are on the pump assembly page. Tornado publishes machine documentation at tornadovac.com.
