How do I replace the Kirby hose end for G3 model?

How do I install the new Kirby hose end with the hook? I do not see how the old one comes off and a new one goes on.

Kirby Kirby G3 Household Appliances, Vacuum Cleaners Replace Hose End Model

hi there, i used to be a kirby engineer, i would change it by putting a phillips screwdriver down the hose end with the hook agaisnt the edge this is where the hose end is located, then you need to use the screwdriver as a lever and try to make the hose end go from O shape to C shape while lightly pulling, this can be made eaiser by running it under hot water, to refit - C shape (using your finger and hand to make C shape) to O shape
hope it make sence
