Clearing a Clog | How to Videos | PowerForce® Compact

If you feel your vacuum has become clogged, the follow tips will help to resolve the issue.

  • First, make sure the vacuum is unplugged.  
  • On the back of the vacuum, locate the stretch hose and where it connects to the hose elbow.  
  • Look to see if there is any debris in the hose and hose elbow. Clean as necessary. 
  • Locate the clear foot hose under the hose holder
  • Remove the two screws and clear any clogs or debris as necessary. You may use a long narrow object such as a broomstick to clean inside the hose.
  • Replace the two screws and re-attach the stretch hose by sliding over the inlet and rotating upwards towards the lock position
