To remove a power steering hose you would generally need to remove the clamps that hold the hose to the metal or plastic tube fittings. The next step depends on if you are going to replace the hose with a new one or try to reuse it. If you are going to try to reuse the hose you can try to wiggle the hose off the fittings. If that fails you will need to try to get something between the hose and the fittings. A thin screw driver may greatly assist in this endeavor. If you are going to simply replace the hose and the hose does not remove easily, the best suggestion would be to use a razor knife and repeatedly *LIGHTLY* score the hose length about three (3) or four (4) inches from the END of the hose towards the center. It is very important to not score through the hose as you may score the surface of the fittings.
