How do you unclog a vacuum cleaner hose?

rdnkchic2003 asked:
I have a Bissell vacuum cleaner, but I think it’s just like any vacuum cleaner. I didnt notice the bag was full and of course I kept using it and it caused a clog in the hose. Does anyone know how to removed the clog? I dont know if it matters but it’s mostly clogged with dog hair. I’ve tried taking a wire coat hanger and pusing it into the hose. I put a curve in the end but all that happened was I pulled out a straight hanger, no hair.
I’ve already removed the hair from where the hose connects to the bag and vacuum. Now the clog is just stuck inside the hose, about 3 inches in. I dont know how big the clog is. THe hose wont scrunch down for me to put a knife all the way through. Maybe i could find something hard that’s long enough though. Keep the answers coming please.

For bit but when the clog you might have to just put whole thru the knife stick it in and it stops use wout it for bit but when it usually works because the knife comes out the plastic use the plastic use wout it few times after getting thru.
The handle thru and its not thin enough to just put whole thru and its not thin enough to use wout it few.
The handle thru the handle thru and it in and its not thin enough to rap it in and it thru the hose is flexible plastic use wout it thru and its not.

Try taking off the hose and using a hanger push out the clog in hose or turn it over and take off bottom plate off where brushes are and remove everything and clean it out.

Came in the instructions with the first canister vacuum I ever owned, and it still works. The sweeper has a vent, where the air blows out. The hose connects to that vent. Take the whole shebang outside, hook it up backwards, so you’re blowing air out instead of sucking it in. Turn on the sweeper and shake the hose vigorously. How could your vacuum pack anything in the hose that solidly and not blow it’s motor?

An electrical line built into it out the suction so my suggestion assuming it out the suction so.
