MY HOOVER STEAM VAC SPIN SCRUB DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE THE SUCTION POWER IT USED TO HAVE. I CANNOT LOCATE THE MANUAL TO SEE HOW TO CHECK FOR OBSTRUCTIONS. ANY IDEAS?
Cannot hook the upholstery cleaner into slot..lost manual in fire
Check the flexible hose that comes down from the handle. Look for a crack where it plugs into the base unit. (visible once you open the handle up and remove the cleanable catch basket)

I have Model #F6039-900 and had the same problem. As the previous poster noted, the hose is cracked at the bottom *on the inside of the machine, as noted), just about 3 inches from where it connects to a black plastic "housing". The hose is very long and shortening it by a few inches should not affect the working of the machine. Is it possible to open the black plastic housing and just cut off the broken portion of the hose (again, it would just shorten the hose by about 4 inches total) and reattach the same hose again? Has anyone tried this or does anyone have any feedback? I cannot seem to find where the black housing can be opened, though...
