Thanks for making this helpful video. I just bought the parts - and the torx bit (thank you) - and I wouldn't have been willing to try without seeing this.
I love this video!! I disassembled my vacuum right along with you. I have to wait 3 days for my houses but at least it's ready and clean waiting on them! Thank you so much! This old girl appreciates you. 😃
I fixed mine and I have a tip!! 😊 I cut my hose down to where the threads perfectly matched the threads of the old tube, it’s just slightly longer and the threads are a little off, once you line it up and trim it down, it slips in perfectly!
This was very helpful, thanks. The Torx screwdriver set I ordered from Amazon has shanks that are barely long enough for the task, and the broken flex hose seemed to be screwed on at either end a bit misaligned so screwing it off was not possible and I had to basically rip it to pieces at either end, but overall the task worked just fine as i followed your video.
Good luck on having those special screwdriver heads handy. Most normal people don't have em'. My suggestion is...shit-can the POS and just get another vacuum (different brand). I noticed even YOU had a fun time putting the damn thing back together...Most of us would barely remember how to put it back together....But thanks anyway...perfect for the pro...not us dummies.
