I remember doing that with my Wynn filter. Always a fun day making those clouds. I used my shop vac on the blower setting.
Canister Filter Cleanout
I'm doing lots of work to my shop. I decided to blow ot my filter stack real good...I figured I'd share a before and after...

I use a leaf blower outside while wearing a dust mask. It takes a surprisingly long time. I try to do a quick blow- down indoors whenever my shop is really clean, and I get it outside for a thorough cleaning every few months.

I think he's talking about shop vac filters.

Replace your old filter bag with an industrial quality pleated canister filter!

Thanks for that Doc. I checked their site last night, but they don't appear to have a filter with 18x36 dimensions. I purchased a filter from Wynn when I converted my old HF DC to a cyclone about 8 years ago.I think he's talking about shop vac filters.

Dust Collection in woodnthings shop part 1
This thread will show how I collect the dust from the table saw, jointer planer and a sliding miter saw. I use a combination of PVC couplers and dust collector flare fittings for quick change connections. I run 4" flex hose right from the Jet 1100 remote controlled DC to the flex hoses either...

My two Jet 1100 were converted from bags to cannisters and from plastic collection bags to cardboard barrels at the time I bought them. First I spin the paddles to knock out most of the dust. And then since my shop is on the second floor, I carry the dusty cannisters carefully down the stairs to the driveway. There I roll them around and bounce them lightly on the ashphaly which does get out most of the caked on dust. Then I use the air hose from the outside on the vanes pushing the dust back inside. That seems to get almost all the dust to fall on the ground where I sweep it up into the tractor bucket and dump in the compost pile:

Yes, and yes. I am totally out of floor space as it is now. That's entirely my own fault, however. I did experiment with Thein baffles and other internal "cyclones" inside the separator of the Jet, but nothing worked that well. I may have elaborated in the thread I linked above.

Gee I wonder why 😂😂
