this is not even accurate!!! the cover does not come apart easily as pictured. it's a nightmare that's what it is. the part where the actual handle is at that's not the problem, the real problem is right above the suction ring. it won't budge. i've been trying for two days.

She's right, the handle halves aren't two-piece on the professional models, they're a single piece and the suction ring holds them together. Some dipsh*t on Youtube is all, "Oh, just use a butter knife to separate the pieces", but I snapped a knife in half without separating them. Pretty sure it has to be at a certain point, or is a one-way snap assembly.

I'd do more research, but I wound out just hammering the clog (a friggin' toy, of course) out the way it came in.

The suction ring on the NV501 must be pried off toward the open end of the tube. A wide flat blade screw driver between the handle and the suction ring works best. The suction ring doesn't need to be rotated any specific direction for removal. It will take some force to snap back onto the handle during assembly. Rotational orientation is important during assembly, so the suction ring can function as designed.

The hose wire is also soldered to a ground plate in the handle, and a ground lead that contacts the aluminum suction tube . You can see the wires in the 2nd picture of step 4. I assume this is required to eliminate static electric charges that could ignite a dust fire when shorted.

Does anyone know of any helpful material on the “SHARK ROTATOR NV750W SERIES”? I had a blockage in the bend of my handle and while attempting to free it i damaged my contacts. Anyways; because I did this damage myself I did not abuse the warranty and just ordered a replacement handle and hose for $84.00 CAD. They sent it fed ex right to my door which is nice because I live in a rural area. However, I connected the new one just as you would and to my disappointment; when I pressed the power button on...NO POWER, no power on any of the three settings and yes I have plugged it into a functioning wall outlet.

Dulce Elote above is 100% right.

I took their photo above to heart and used a hacksaw to cut around the top piece so it looks just like the photo.

Hose replacement becomes easier.

Caution so be sure to solder the hose to the copper wire you see when you take it apart
