Hi Colin, it's Jack at Dyson.
DC27's wand should release from the machine easily, and disengage from the body of the machine when it's fully extended. If it seems to be jammed in place, it's possible there's a blockage within the hose which is preventing it from extending.
To resolve this, open the clear U-bend and check for any obstructions.
This should help, but if you continue to have difficulty you're welcome to get in touch with the Dyson Customer Helpline for further assistance from our experts. We can help you check if the mechanism for the wand is damaged - and if a replacement part is needed, we can confirm whether your machine is covered under the Dyson warranty.
You can reach the Dyson Customer Helpline by calling 0800 298 0298 (UK), 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) or 1800 239 766 (AU).
