The side broom is what lets a wide-area sweeper finish a room: the main brushroll cleans the 26-inch path under the machine, and this assembly reaches into the wall angles and under the fixtures it cannot. This sheet covers the side brush (part# K50322210), its motor (part# K64542210) and drive disc (part# K56250410), the arm and bracket that carry them outboard, the height adjustment that sets how hard the brush works, and the push-button control that lets an operator switch the broom off on open floor to save battery. 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.
A note on callout 20. The factory sheet gives the same number to two different parts — the M5 x 20 screw and the side broom cap — with a single marker on the drawing. Rather than guess which the marker refers to, we have listed both in the table and left that callout without a clickable dot. Call 763-535-0770 with your machine and we will identify the right one.
Frequently Asked Questions
My Tornado Tempest cleans the middle of the floor but leaves the edges — what is wrong?
That is the classic side broom fault. The main brushroll covers the centre path and is unaffected, so the machine looks like it is working. Check whether the side brush (part# K50322210) is turning at all — if not, look at the side broom motor (part# K64542210) after first confirming the brush spins freely by hand.
How often does the side brush need replacing?
It is the fastest-wearing part on the machine, because it is deliberately run against walls and skirting all day. Judge it by reach rather than appearance: set the machine against a wall and see whether the bristle tips still make contact beyond the machine body.
My side brushes keep wearing out unevenly — why?
Usually a bent side broom arm (part# K50979600) or a worn drive disc (part# K56250410). Either lets the brush run out of true, and a wobbling brush wears to a cone in days instead of months. Check both before fitting another brush.
How should the side brush height be set?
So the bristle tips just contact the carpet without visibly bending. Too high and the brush flicks debris rather than moving it; too low and it scrubs, which loads the motor, cuts battery runtime and wears the brush out quickly. The height adjustment bracket (part# K50963980) and star grip (part# K63213430) hold the setting.
Why do two different parts share callout 20 on this diagram?
The factory sheet numbers both the M5 x 20 screw (part# K73031080) and the side broom cap (part# K50342360) as callout 20, with only one marker on the drawing. Because we cannot tell which the marker points to, we have left that callout without a clickable dot and listed both parts in the table. Call 763-535-0770 and we will identify the one you need.
