Doea anyone know if there is a part you can by to just push hose in to inlet hole? Im so tired of having to fight with this issue where you cut a peice of the end of the hose and thread it in. Any suggestions much appreciated and Happy Easter!

I will agree it is not the easiest thing to do but I have never had to cut the hose to get it started into the vac. It might take a couple of tries to get the groove lined up with the teeth on the vac.

My guess is that if you made it easy to install, it would be easy to remove.

On the Coleman vacs I have, you just push the hose in .. every now and then someone pulls one out, but I rarely have the problem. I do have a couple of older RoChemco vacs that are a little looser, but I just have to have a single wrap of duct tape around the end and the hose fits in tightly.

Well the je adams vacs do not have the push in method. It is a threading method that have to be turned counterclockwise and its not am easy task. I really like the vacs but this is really annoying especially when you can only get like 2/3 vac threads in.

Can you remove the tab, or whatever catches the threads? If so, you could probably push it far enough into the can to screw a cuff on from the inside.

You could install Dualers and those "Push In".

Take a pair of channel lock pliers and move one of the tabs out or in a little. Then the hose should thread in easy.
