Yes, I'm sure it's broken. The right leg is broke off. So I guess I'll look for a new hose. Ben, why should I get a new switch? Thanks for the information guys. |

Karl,
I made the other suggestion in case that was the problem with your Classic III rather than with your hose. Here's a decent-looking hose for your machine: https://www.ebay.com/itm/KIRBY-VACUUM-BR... ~Ben |

Karl,
You can still find an original Sani Emtor for your Classic III if you look hard enough on eBay and other places... good luck! Since I see the handle fork has the cord hooks facing where the toe touch control is, your Classic III is a 1978 or 1979 model. The version of the tattersall cloth bag in the picture below is what you want for your Classic III. ~Ben
