  • Step 1 – Inspect hose: Stretch the hose fully and look for thin spots, cracks, or permanent kinks.
  • Step 2 – Test suction without hose: Run the vacuum with the hose removed to confirm suction is normal at the main inlet.
  • Step 3 – Replace hose: If the hose collapses under suction or shows damage, replace it with a genuine Dirt Devil hose for your model.
