How do you remove the hose from the main body for the f5 series hoover steamvac?

I no longer have the machine. I recall using a small philips screwdriver to remove the collar on the underside of the machine.

Yes slice the hose and it will come off, or tug and wiggle and it will disconnect.

On the inlet port remove the screen. Most vac hoses have an adapter that will fit inside. I installed an extra inlet port on my pool to allow vac bypass.

The hose detaches from the head at the base of the head. The hose has the standard female connector. Hope this helps.

pretty simple to do, just unscrew your present nozzle and then screw on the new one. To remove your old one grab the the end of the nozzle toward the water flexible hose and then turn the nozzle counter clockwise. Should come right off

Hi,Thank you for your question! The only way to do this would be to remove the intake screen to reach the actual hose intake. If you have any other questions please let us know!Thank you,MackensieCustomer ServiceThe Pond & Garden Wholesalers

There weren't instructions. You are supposed to leave a hose connected to the top connection on the back at the bottom. The problem is it's a male fitting for some crazy reason. I bought a very short hose, cut off the male end and bought a female end replacement and made my very short hose a double female.

You have to install the quick disconnect, purchased separately. Otherwise remove at hose end from first stage with wrench.

Yes you can remove the silver hose from the orange carpet attachment part for sure. I like this vacuum it is easy to go underneath furniture.

I took it to a Hitachi service guy. Basically he took it all apart and forced it on. There must be an easier way.So I would appreciate how to do it.ThanksRCR

Just attach the hose to the white tube on the top of the blue head. Love it, works great! And when it quits working you can just buy replacement brushes.

You need to attach the gravity ball on the sprayer house underneath the sink. It's heavy enough to pull back or retract the sprayer. Make sure you mark the hoes after pulling the sprayer the length you want out, then attach the gravity ball (2 pieces that snaps on around the hose). FYI- I used the old gravity ball as well to retract the sprayergood luck

Yes. Remove the bottom. There are about 6 latching tabs. I used tooth picks to separate and hold the pieces far enough apart. With a little heat you can pull the old hose off and slip the replacement on the barb. I also carefully removed the slide switch before re-assembly. Just some more tabs, but be careful you don't snap them off. That eliminates alignment problems and the switch will snap back in when done. That's what I did with mine and it worked like a charm.

If you are talking about the main hose that has the crevice tool fitting on it, it is a left handed thread. Tighten by turning it counter clockwise. Maybe try some silicone or soft glue. It is one of the flaws of this vacuum. And honestly, frustrating..

Detaching hose from wrong side and front rotating brushes making contact with a surface.

You simply unclick the blower nozzle attach the leaf bag in that same spot then unbuckle the bottom and attach the vacum piece. Probably takes 1 minute I have done it multiple times now.

I used the kreepy krawler cleaner and that hose fit get. You have to twist it to remove the top. It is had to do at first, but gets easier.
