5. Turn the handle (1, Fig. L) downwards ( 90^ approximately) and let the filter frame (2) rotate outwards.
6. Remove the dust filter (3).
7. In an appropriate outdoor area, clean the filter by shaking it on a level and clean surface, tapping the side (1, Fig. M) opposite to the wire gauze (2). Complete the cleaning by using compressed air (3) at maximum 6 bars, blowing only from the side protected by the wire gauze (2), at a minimum distance of 30~cm (see the figure).

According to the filter type, observe the following cautions:

• Paper filter (standard): Do not use water or detergents to clean it; the filter can be damaged.
  Polyester filter (optional): To clean it, see the above-mentioned instructions. If necessary, for a better cleaning, it is allowed to wash the filter with water and non-lathering detergents. This provides better quality cleaning but reduces the life of the filter, which will have to be replaced more frequently. The use of inadequate detergents can damage the filter.

• Check the filter body for tears.

• If necessary, clean the filter compartment rubber seal (4, Fig. L) along its perimeter and check it for integrity. If necessary, replace it.
• Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly.

NOTE
