What happens here

Wearing protective gloves, open the can of Oatey Medium Black ABS Cement. Apply a liberal amount of glue to the freshly cut end of the vacuum hose and also to the male fitting on the handle where the hose connects. Immediately after applying the glue, firmly twist and push the hose onto the handle fitting. The twisting motion helps distribute the glue evenly and create a secure bond. Hold it in place for a moment to allow the glue to set.

Goal: Apply a generous amount of ABS glue (medium black ABS cement) to the clean end of the vacuum hose and the handle's connection point. Quickly twist and push the hose back onto the handle to form a strong, sealed connection.

What they say

Hide

A little clamp that's actually holding this hose on, and then you can just slide that out of the way. It's going to cut around it. Give it chop. Grab the wire piece and just start pulling. A little bit of ABS glue. This is lefty loosey to tighten. Put that hose back through that hole. Dimple right there, we're going to put it into that divot, and it's going to actually click right in place. We're going to want to push this fitting on. Then you're able to just take your clip.
