MY VACUUM HOSE KEEPS COMING OF NEED TO PUT CLAMP ON UPPER END AND CAN'T FINGURE OUT HOW TO TAKE IT APART TO GET TO UPPER END OF HOSE

To access the upper end of the hose on the Clarke CR 28 Boost vacuum for clamping, follow these steps:
1. Drive the machine to the disposal area. 2. Turn the ignition key to "0". 3. Open the covers (e.g., covers 51 and 58 or 45 depending on model version). 4. Locate and clean the vacuum screen with automatic shut-off float. 5. If necessary, release the fasteners (marked A) and open the screen (marked B). 6. This gives access to internal components, including the hose connection area.
These steps allow access to the area where the vacuum hose connects internally for inspection or clamping.

Questions and answers
MY VACUUM HOSE KEEPS COMING OF NEED TO PUT CLAMP ON UPPER END AND CAN'T FINGURE OUT HOW TO TAKE IT APART TO GET TO UPPER END OF HOSE
To access the upper end of the hose on the Clarke CR 28 Boost vacuum for clamping, follow these steps:
1. Drive the machine to the disposal area.
2. Turn the ignition key to "0".
3. Open the covers (e.g., covers 51 and 58 or 45 depending on model version).
4. Locate and clean the vacuum screen with automatic shut-off float.
5. If necessary, release the fasteners (marked A) and open the screen (marked B).
6. This gives access to internal components, including the hose connection area.
These steps allow access to the area where the vacuum hose connects internally for inspection or clamping.
