The nuts are factory crimped. Squeeze the crimp several times on opposite sides into a 'rounder' tube with vicegrips (for the lever action that multiplies your control over jaw pressure) and you'll be able to pull the wires out. Replace with more sensible home consumer threaded nuts. Available in several sizes at Home Depot, etc, I'd use the small gray size for a positive lock unless there are 3 wires to gang together in which case go to the next blue size. Note that the wire gauge (thickness) is much narrower than lamp cord or house wiring, thus small nuts. Good luck, Bobby, tho you won't need it. Just patience and and it's a slamdunk. Dave | ||

How are you (or didyou) make out??
Fate did not choose the wrong passion Bobby, I have been tinkering with vacuums and anything else thet comes apart sence I could grip a screwdriver and Im still learning.Like Dave said Patience. Once you get thru this one the next one will be a snap. Also I tend to cut those nuts off of Hoovers as close to the wire end as I can then like Dave replace with blue or gray wire nuts ;).

OK sorry guys.Seriously tho I have some around and as far as the wand leaning forward this id normal for Hoover they all do,and the cord Gromet what I do to get those suckers out is from the inside squeeze the smaller section and bigger section together with needle nose and push out, careful of your other hand.
