I have an Infinity Bagless Vacumm and the Hose is Clogged, I’ve gotten the snake part of the hose unclogged but when I turn the Vacumm up side down the hose that is at the bottom and unable to be detached it is still fully clogged, I’ve taken it apart as much as I can and I still don’t see a way to get it unclogged. Can anyone help me? My Floors are in desperate need of a Vacuum Cleaner. Click this link to see a Picture of the part I’m speaking of.

I’ve tried to open it where it looks like it would open up but it apparently doesn’t because so far my attempts at doing so have failed.
To my Work here is Done. I had those taken off at one point and it did nothing, all that’s underneath those screws is a place to take out the Control Buttons that sit on top of the Vacuum, I don’t see the power head or a place where it can be unscrewed. it’s not sawdust it’s pine shavings from my guinea pigs didn’t think Vacuuming up the little bit they get on the floor would matter too much, Guess I was wrong.
I always cleared mine with a coat hanger.It seems like the ones made with the flex hose like your’s always plug up keep working at it with a coat hanger you will get it clean after the first cleaning, clean the hose before it gets tightly packed.
it looks like the little door where the hose connects comes off… like, it slides up?
no?
See where the + screws are? They have to come off. That assembly comes apart. Your power head has stuffed the pipe and it has to be unplugged from that end. If you see a screw, unscrew it. Pay attention as to what screw goes where as they may be different lengths.
Slowly, surely you will get it apart safely. Looks like a lot of sawdust in the pipe.
The job you are doing here(undoing the screws) is what they do in the repair shop. @ 60 bucks an hour.
generally unclog strait hoses by sending a table knife down and shake, a bent one, the clog will be at the bend, needle nosed pliers are a good bet.
