Knock the filter out on the palm of

outwards.
If filter is caked with dirt:
N Wash the filter in STIHL special
cleaner (special accessory) or a
clean, non-flammable solution (e.g.
warm soapy water) and then dry.
Do not use a brush to clean the
fleece filter.

therefore be replaced at more frequent
intervals than the fleece filter.
