The spring mechanism piece is fell out of the machine (I have the gray and purple machine). I am trying to fix it on my own. Paid an arm and leg for this machine and it will no longer work on floors without the spring. It's the black piece that holds the vacuum upright and the hose in place. The exploded diagram I found does not show how this piece fits. Any help??

iv done this myself there should be two black peices
one large with two holes where the pipes go and a smaller peice and a small spring the first thing you have to do is put the large peice in clipping in from the bottem it is hard to get in and you may need a screwdriver to help prise it in once that is in the other end should just slot in the small black peice should go in easy theres a hole on each end you may need your screwdriver again once this in done just put the spring in if you still have trouble with it i can send you some pix's showing you how to do it
