Thank you for sharing this solution! 4 years after it helped me out today. We've always just cleaned the lower paper cutter, but that wasn't enough anymore. The was a lot of glue on the top one. Thanks, buddy!

Many thanks for the informative video. After stopping at a vacuum/sewing machine repair shop with no luck on finding a replacement hose (they hated Shark vacuums), I took to Amazon and bought a hose online. Took 5 mins to put in the new hose, reconnect the wires and put the cover back on. Easy as pie!

Thanks! Fixed my shark after watching your video!

How do I fix a loose wheel?

There is no need to cut or connect any wires I remove the hose the opposite way that You did I remove the bottom plate remove the bottom of the hose and unscrew the top part of the hose

I have Printer Error 21 on LCD printer screen. Does anyone know what the problem is? I don't see paper jam..

I bought the hose on Amazon. My vacuum is a HV301 but bought a hose for HV300 because it was a lot cheaper. Fits perfect. No problems.

The female adapter at brush end pops out, not held by a screw, or part of casting. Making install easier.

I tried this with a shark rocket HV380w (a newer model). Every screw is a security screw and the hose is glued on both sides. The hose on the motor side has a rubber collar bonded to the plastic which appears that shark has now made the motorized floor nozzle extremely difficult (near impossible) to repair even with a replacement hose bit. The glue, even with using acetone, is near impossible to remove. It appears they have changed the hose size several times between models and if your host diameter is off by 1-3 mm it won't thread. The cost of sending in the vacuum is approximately $20 if its under warranty. I ended up abandoning the project and unfortunately had to buy a replacement part from the manufacturer. If this happens to part that I ordered from shark, I will likely find another brand. Shark needs to support peoples right to repair by designing their products to have the hose (and other parts) to be replaced easier or they will need to design a more heavy duty hose section that does not break down.

Somebody can tell me if I need to glue one side of the hose?? ,I have a Shark hv380 I don't know how to keep it in place.. thank you!!

Always round up when measuring any hose less than 6” 😂

Thanks for your time

Is that head nozzle compatible with a UV450?

I believe the collar at the lower end comes off Thread into collar then scrim to what. Replace collar. No need to disconnect wires if you remove lower collar.

Ditto the black piece on the base pops off ….don’t cut wires…ez pz…..

Thanks for info and video. If this has already been mentioned, my apologies. I discovered the wires (for HV301) do not need to be cut. Instead the black attachment for the lower hose can be removed from the lower attachment. You can then reverse screw the hose then reattach into the slot.

Man WHAT ARE YOU DOING. ? Watch some other videos. You went the long road.

Thank You, back up and running. Great tutorial I followed it to the tee. You definitely will need the T20 bit.

You are a life saver!!

Very helpful!

Great video!! Before I watched it, I had told my wife that the sweeper was done. Went back out to the shop and "unscrewed" the old hose and put in the one from the attachment that my wife never used. Without your video, I was done. Thanks!

Mine were torx 10 and 20 security screws

Worked great …..I used the hose from the floor duster device (got that tip from another RU-vid video) you don’t need to cut the wires…just line up the hose in the two parts and turn…thanks for the video

Thank you for this great video. I have another problem with my Epsom c3500 printer. It shows error 3 and we have been cleaning and whiping without any result :( thought you might have a hack for fixing error 3?

Very good video! Hose measurement 6 1\4" x 1 1/4" is correct for my model HV300 which i ordered from Amazon. However it seemed a lot stiffer and perhaps a little larger in diameter than the one in the video and was a little tricky to fit in place. ( didn't disconnect the wires as shown in video) Video was thorough from beginning to end so I was able to fix my vac myself! Woo-hop! I am woman! 💪💃

This was hugely helpful to me, thank you so much! Glad to see I'm not the only one who had to rip out the hose by the wire.

Soooo, am I the only one with no "safety star" tool???

We had a hell of a time putting the hose back together...FYI a little KY goes a loooooooong way! 🤣🤣🤣 your welcome!

Thank you for helping our vacuum back up and running! Very helpful :)

Just to add there were three locking screws made out of plastic on the underneath side where the brush is. You locked the two on the sides of the brush but the one in the middle lower down you forgot to turn to the locked position.

I'm having an issue where i keep getting paper jam error 03 on this exact printer model. I've tried everything, from cleaning the sensor and shooting compressed air throughout the paper path in hope of blowing out an small debris that might be tricking the sensor to no avail. Even with no paper inserted i still hear a noise is if the rollers abruptly stop and get that paper jam error. Any suggestions?

Thanks for helping me resurrect my corded shark, like others below I used the hardwood floor attachment for replacement hose and ring. Mom life😊

wow

Okay I don't have the same exact model but you help me find my problem with my broken hose. the first problem solved, by the way it was blowing the dirt back out at me and I couldn't figure out how. Lol great job 😄 Well now a New problem!

I had a shark attachment that I had never used in the 6 years I've owned my shark so I took that apart and took the hose from that (so completely free repair). I didn't have to cut wires as it was pretty simple to change them over since watching your vid but getting the casing to click back together was a real challenge! However, since taking the bottom unit apart the upper suction isn't working as effectively as the lower unit won't stop sucking when it's completely upright. Even if I take the upper unit off using the liftaway function. Has anyone else experienced this? I was hoping that I wouldn't need to buy a new vacuum but I think after 6 years I may have to :(

This Vac is so terrible. The hose so small that it constantly clogs and you have to open the bottom and get out the clog. Once I got the clog out, the suction is still bad, so I resorted back to my cheap vac. This is my second Shark, and they are flops.

You don't have to cut the wires. The front part comes out of the front of the vacum. That way you screw the tube into the back and then you can screw on the front piece and put back into the front hole .

Thanks man you rock

Thank you sir. I work in a hospital. And we use a bunch of these. You saved us a huge headache. We Appreciate this video very very much

Thank you thank you. I have replaced my Shark lower hose. It was a little tricky getting the old one out. I ordered the 1 1/2" X 6" from Amazon. It's actually better quality than the original. If it wasn't for your video, I would have had to trash my beloved Shark!

Well done bud worked a treat 👏

who know way after installing new printhead to tm-c3500 the printer show error ?

Had this issue the other day, and it was nice to see I wasn't alone

This video once again has rescued my sanity.

There is a piece that comes out easily on the brush head so you don't have to disconnect wires.

This helped me get my daughter’s hair out the roller...freak accident. Thanks so much!!!

Do you know how to assemble the motor wiring on the shark handle. I relaxed the motor but the wire connections are confusing (top of vacuum)

What would you charge to change the Printhead on a C3400 - May have up to 5 to do. Thanks, Rob.

Top of lower hose is threaded righty tighy. Lower portion is threaded lefty tighty.
