What is the 'filter cleaning tool' mentioned in the product description?

The filter cleaning wheel is a wheel attached to the middle of the vac on the side. By turning this wheel, it distributes the dirt vacuumed up to take it away from the opening to allow more even distribution and stronger suction.

I think it is a little misleading, but it has a function to turn the filter manually with out removing it and I guess that is supposed to clean it a little. Really though it doesn't do much of anything. I just take the filter out and shake it into a trash can.

It's just part of the filter holding inert that you turn rapidly to agitate the filter, dropping out the larger chunks. This thing is awesome, honestly. Highly recommend the vacuum.

There is no actual filter cleaning tool. They may be referring to the built in filter cleaning wheel.(located in the center) If turned it just knocks some of the dust out of the paper filter to increase suction before cleaning. They suggest tapping the two filters together over the trash. I find using a larger vac or air compressor work best.

The Filter comes out by pulling out the handle on top. There is also a screw-in connection from the handle to the filter assembly for easy cleaning.

The blue filter is a large scrubbing pad. Just like the green plastic scrubbing pads. It's cut to fit the vacuum cleaner. They work fine for the larger particles in the pool.

Hi. From what I could gather from the instruction, the filter screen is a rinse and reuse item. No replacement necessary. I imagine if you used it so much that you just totally wore it out, you would just replace the while thing. Otherwise, just rinse, it seems.

The pre-filter foam can be cleaned. The paper main filter element must be replaced.

The only site I ever found was zane.com I was on my cell so there was limited information. I have to go back myself to look for a new filter. Good luck! I hope you find it because it is a really good little machine. If not, I would go to the big box store and look in the vacuum section. Thanks!

I take the rubber ring gasket off of the filter between uses and clean out the groove

You remove the filter, run a vacuum cleaner brush over it, and reinsert it. You can also buy a replacement if it wears out or becomes damaged.

Yes, there is a filter cone, a plastic measure cup, and a filter cleaning brush included in the package.

It come with a heave duty cloth filter which you just have to shake out to clean. I highly recommend this product. It's powerful and very quiet.

Hi - Yes, when I ordered mine, it came with the filter - everything I needed to replace the old unit. I hope this information is helpful!

I use a non scratching scrub sponge to clean the outside of the filters. Then re-prime each filter to get ride of any lose material that may have become dislodged due to the cleaning. Then reinstall .

Bissell Filter 203-7423 by Bissell. It's just the standard filter that goes in hand vacs.

I just take out the little filter bag and shake it over the trash or use a whisk broom to get it cleaner. I've had mine for over a year, and I haven't needed a new filter yet.

I'm not familiar with that term. The unit only came with the filter cartridge which works so-so. It still creates as much of the white mineral dust as other units without the filter. I think the "filter" is just a ploy to charge a lot of money for a small plastic cylinder that doesn't make much of a difference. Otherwise, the machine works fine.
