CLEANING THE POST-MOTOR HEPA FILTER

 Remove the tool caddy from the unit.

 Remove the filter cover from the vacuum by pulling 
up on the tab and pulling the cover away from the 
vacuum. (

fig. 15

)

 Take out the HEPA filter by pulling it straight out. 

 Turn the filter over so that the dirty side is on 
the bottom and vigorously tap it clean against a 
garbage can to remove any dust. (

fig. 16

)

 Wash the filter under the tap using lukewarm 
water with the dirty side face down until the water 
runs clear. (

 Allow the filter to air dry for 24 hours. Do not use a 
hair dryer or other heating methods to dry.

 Once the HEPA filter is dry, replace it back into the 
vacuum. 

 Replace the cover by inserting the two tabs into 
the holes at the top and then swinging the cover 
down until it clicks into place.
