Where does the dust go that is vaccuumed up? How do you empty it?

It works like the other Dyson stick vacuums like the DC44. Stuff gets sucked up into a canister up by the handle. To empty, hold the canister over a trash can, garbage bag, etc, and push a little lever and the bottom of the canister pops open and the contents falls out. Sometimes I find you need to shake the canister or tap it on the side to get some of the pet fluff out.

The dirt goes into the canister and to empty it, you push a release button and dump the dirt into a trash can.

You empty it the same way you do the DC44 its predecessor. On the base there is a red tab that you push up and the lid on the base opens where the dust and dirt falls out. Hope this helps!

No, you don't. There is a container that holds quite a bit of debris. I can use it many times before I have to empty it. I usually try to get anything large like leaves with a net. Then I use the vacuum for the bottom of the spa to remove smaller particles and sand. It does a nice job.

I just hang it on a nail in the garage and have never really though about dust. After I pump the gas, I just shake it off and hang it up.

Maybe you have a clog in the hose or maybe you should check the filter (there is a hidden filter I was unaware of in the bottom of the vacuum, to locate it look at the front of your vacuum just under the dust bin you will see a vented area, look for a clip to open the vent and the filter is right there. Otherwise I would say maybe you have a hole in your hose? Hope this helps. Good luck.

I clean it out atleast once or twice a month give or take just depends on how dusty your house is. IF you have case Dust filters.

It follows you around like a dog on a leash, so you've pretty much already vacuumed where the main unit's at. I haven't noticed it kicking up dust, but them I'm looking ahead, not behind.

The hose from the shop vac connects to the top of the Dust Deputy, and the hose leading to the tool (table saw, router, band saw, etc.) connects to the side of the Dust Deputy. Just slide the vacuum hose over the nozzle ports on the Dust Deputy, switch on the shop vac, and you're ready to go. No more dust will get into the shop vac, so you'll never have to replace the filter again. Just empty the container beneath the Dust Deputy when it gets about half full. I use a 5-gallon bucket under my Dust Deputy.

Step on the release button on the top of the base,lift off the base, hold it over a waste basket, then push the button that's on the handle and the dust bin opens. Hope this helps

No, there's no bag. You just push a button to unhook the bottom part of the unit, take out the filter that sits in there and dump it out. The filter gets stuck with pet hair and lint, I've thought about vacuuming it off with my upright but so far have just shaken it out into the trash.

I usually bang as much dust out of it as I can when I empty the bin. Then just vacuum the filter itself whenever it seems to be REALLY dirty. We've got 3 of the HEPA filters and just rotate them in and out.

There is a release button on the top of the canister that you press and lift the canister off the vac. Then there is another button at the bottom of the canister unit that looks just like the release button. Press it while holding it over a trash can and the content should fall out.

What I have done is first vacuumed the foam filter, then take out the two perm filters and use the brush attachment on my Kirby... It has enough suction to get out almost all the collected dust... I also have a unit in another room to reduce dust in my apt... Hope this helps...

Yes it gets dusty. I just wipe it down after. The inside is a bit harder to clean when it needs it.

I'm not sure. I would tap the filter on the floor to get off as much dust as possible then brush it off maybe with an old tooth brush or stiff paint brush. let it dry and then brush and tap more.

Use a vacuum. The air leaks out making them pretty worthless, though they do keep dust off.

When you dump the container, do you also untwist and remove the upper filter and clean it? I killed a prior bagless vacuum because I did not know I could remove the plastic filter and the dust clogged the filter and motor overheated. Good luck.
