- Press the tabs on the sides of the connector to remove the hose.
- You can use a long, thin object to unclog the hose.
- If this fixes your problem, then you are finished with this guide.
- Look at the vacuum handle and locate the orange button that says "Handle" with a picture of a lock.
- Press the button and remove the handle.
- Look at the vacuum handle.
- Using a T-15 screwdriver, remove the five 15mm screws in the handle by turning them counter-clockwise.
- Use a plastic opening tool to pry open the handle.
- Don't worry if the handle sounds like it is going to break; it takes a lot of force to pull apart.
- When popping open your handle, the small grey piece of plastic(pictured in the last frame) will fly out.
- The orange plastic piece may have naturally fallen out at this point.
- Look a your handle.
- Using your hands, pull the tube from the nozzle of the handle.
- The tube is soldered onto a wire connecting to the plastic orange piece inside the handle.
- Cut this connection with wire clippers to remove and replace your tube.
