Replacement Guidance

Consider replacing your Riccar Sunburst hose assembly if you notice:

• Cracks, splits, or visible damage in the hose.

• Reduced suction caused by a hose leak or blockage.

• A loose connection between the hose and vacuum.

• Kinks or damage that restrict airflow.

• A damaged handle or hose-end connector.

Before ordering a replacement:

1. Locate the model label on your Riccar canister vacuum.

2. Check the part number on your existing hose, if available.

3. Inspect the hose ends and locking connection.

4. Confirm whether your model requires C361-0700 or another hose assembly.

Disconnect the vacuum from electrical power before inspecting or replacing the hose. If suction remains weak after replacing the hose, check for blockages in the wand, cleaning tool, filters, or other airflow passages.
