Riccar Simplicity D015-0900 Metal Base Plate Assembly for 4000 Series Uprights
The Riccar / Simplicity D015-0900 Metal Base Plate Assembly is a replacement lower base plate assembly for select 4000 Series household upright vacuum cleaners. This metal base plate helps cover and secure the lower brush roll and nozzle area on compatible Riccar and Simplicity upright models.
The base plate is an important part of the vacuum’s lower cleaning head. It helps keep the brush roll area properly covered while supporting smooth movement across carpet and floors. If the original base plate is bent, cracked, broken, missing, worn, or no longer latching securely, replacing it can help restore proper fit and function.
