Hi, Andrew from Aussie Vac here. Today we're going to take a look at how to repair a split vacuum hose. So what we have here is an old vacuum hose which has got a split just behind the handle. This is going to affect the suction of the vacuum system and needs to be repaired.
The first step is to cut the damaged piece of hose away. The easiest way to do this is to cut straight through the split to remove the handle from the end. Now that we've cut through the split in the hose, we need to concentrate on removing the small piece of hose that remains in the handle. To do this we need to depress the tab that makes the locking ring grip onto the handle and secure the hose.
The hose will now come out of the handle and we can work on the next stage of the repair. If this piece is glued onto the remaining hose, unfortunately you can't use this and you'll need to throw it away and get a new one, which you can buy on our website, to thread onto your hose. In some cases this part isn't glued and will simply thread off.
The last step is to simply reassemble the hose. Start by placing the locking ring on, threading on your hose hull, which is a reverse thread. In this case I'm using a new hull, but you could use your old hull if it wasn't glued on as we discussed earlier. Once it's thread on all the way, place your handle back over and clip it together. There's your repair complete.
