It's incredibly difficult to get the hose out sometimes. A slight bend in plastic and you'll be touching your vac like you really shouldn't be. That's how I broke mine.

All you need is some clear grease, like WD40. Spray once down the front "canal" which is a dip in the grey colored solid hose handle. Wiggle it around so it coats the plastic piece. Wipe excess.
For too much grease, wipe down with a little alcohol.
