DYSON: How to Change the Suction Hose on DC17 / Animal Vacuum 

Yes they are pretty good vacuums.. . I have 2 of them and very rarely have I had anything happen to them... 😊

Awesome! You're welcome.. 😀

Good tips 😁😁

You are absolutely correct. I knew Dyson would not make it that difficult. It just not there style. Thanks for pointing it out. Your comment made all the difference in replacing my hose.

yes, good tip and also I had to lift the filter lid, then it literally fell out. thank you.

You're welcome! Glad I could help.

Thank you so much! I'm glad I was able to help.. 😀

Glad it helped! I did a video on that one too..

@@TheHomeImprovementChannel I've watched that one too! Waiting on the part to arrive.

Those Great Dane's are really helpful when they put their minds to it! Glad the video helped too....:-)

Excellent! Thanks for the comment.. :-)

Glad to hear it! You're welcome.. 😊

You're welcome...:-)

You're welcome!

Cool! Thanks for the tips... 😀

Excellent, You're welcome! Which other hose?

@@TheHomeImprovementChannel the smaller one underneath, its pulls off one end, but the other end mmm im not sure. Thank you Rudy

Oh yea, cool... yes that's a good idea. I'll put it on my TODO list! Thanks...

@@TheHomeImprovementChannel I've just been looking for a video on how to change the little small hose, too (which, from what I've seen, is called the Lower Intake Hose, or Internal Hose), and looked to see if you happened to film that yet but didn't find anything. Anyway that'd still be on your TO DO list?!? 😉😉

Oh, and you've found yourself a new subscriber, too!

Hello. Seems like all that will do is help you get the cord off the reel a little faster. If the hose has a hole in it, I don't think this will help much except that you can get the cord out of the way a little faster. Thanks for the tip..

@@TheHomeImprovementChannel On my DC17 it locks the handle in place. Once I turn it upside down, the handle easily comes out and I can use the accessories.

@@KevinPatton Oh very cool! Thanks for the info.. I'll try that.

Something might be caked in there causing it to be tight. Did you look inside the hose to see if there's anything in there that would be causing a problem?

Yes, obviously if the hose is full of holes, but on this particular vacuum the hose didn’t pull out very well..stuck is similar, so it could be a hose..I can’t verify that without seeing it, so you’ll have to make your best judgment call

@@TheHomeImprovementChannel It was the spring. I used white lithium grease, spayed the area near red button, the groove on the silver hose, and the springs near roller. Works like a champ.
