Where do you hook up hose - Kirby G6 Bagged Upright Vacuum

I do not 'fix' broken hoses, I replace them.

Most Shop Vacs allow you to hook the hose up to the output valve as well as the intake.

Make sure that your hose is hooked up to the intake valve on your shop vac.

Hi Jackie ma268...
You need a metal coat hanger nd a pair of pliers.
You will straighten out the coat hanger with a pair of pliers, except the end that you hang the clothes hanger up with, because it has got the hook already made..
After you have gotten the hanger straight, you will take the hook of the hanger and make a smaller hook that will slide easy into your hose with the hook being able to catch the sock ...once it has caught the sock, then twist it a few times so that it will get caught up in the sock really well...then pull the sock out of the hose...Job done.
Please take time to rate me

The easiest way to remove an article of clothing from the hose is to remove one end of the hose from the vacuum, and reach in with a piece of wire with the end bent into a hook. A wire coathanger will work well for this. Just straighten out the coathanger, take a pair of pliers, and put a small bend at the end of the wire, in a J, or hook shape. Then, reach the wire into the hose, and when you feel the obstruction, twist the wire, so that the hook gets stuck on the sock. Then, pull it out, and reattatch the end of the hose back on the vacuum.
It doesn't matter which end of the hose you remove, just whichever is easier, and hopefully closest to the clog.

Do not try to push it out, as it will just bunch up tighter. It must be pulled out.

just push a longer rod down the hose its the only way to get this out i bet its right at the hover end to and a wire hook may get at it from were the hose gos into the hover bag,(mine gets blocked up there every time)
i use a lenth of welding wire with a hook bent in it but a coat hanger would do if you straiten it out first then bend just the first inch of it so it fits inside the hose

remove the handle from the body of the unit slide the handle all the way out there is a small button on the plastic coller press it in and pull the handle free lay the hose on the floor and at the base of the hose there is a hook put one finger under the hook and just between the hose and the body you will see a clip that is locked into the body put your thumb on the clip pull it towards you and as you do this lift the hook and the hose coller will come out it can be hard to get it out so take your time

Hi
There must be a blockage in the hose.
Check the hose from the pickup,just behind the rotating brush all the way to the dirt collector.

Push a length of wire with the end bent into a small hook(similar to a fish hook) to pull out any blockage.

Yes it could. It sounds like your low voltage wires are not hooked up properly. You need to get your contractor back out there.

It's been while since I used one. Hopefully things haven't changed.

One hose has to be be connected to the faucet of the sink using the adaptor. The other hose is supposed to go to the Rainbow iteslf.

one gets the rug wet and the other extracts.

lol

Try taping a fishing hook or some such onto the end of a straightened out coat hanger. See if you can push it up the hose and hook the sock.

Or, remove the hose entirely, and push a broom handle down the hose.

That's all I got...
