Default Servo Vacuum Hose Removal

Is there any way to change the vacuum hose coming from the break servo? I have a small cut in the hose. Had a brief look at removing it from the servo but does not seem like it wants to come off.

Yes it does come off just pull it with some force, it's a barbed connection.

With the engine off, pump the brakes a few times until the pedal goes hard.

That will make it easier to remove from the servo. It's very hard to remove just after the engine has been running as the vacuum in the servo keeps it sucked in place.
