Dan Shocke's earlier post piqued my brain about dust and filter cleaning. I have a Griz cyclone with the cannister type filter and was wondering if many of you fellow cannisterers remove the filter and blast out the pleats inside.. I have the newer cleaning brush installed and use it each time I empty the barrel, but I have been doing a lot of drum sanding lately and am thinking it may be a good idea to blast it out. The system seems to be working fine, but slacking performance could be creeping up on me without noticing any change. I've done it before when I overfilled the barrel, cyclone, dust bag, and DC room floor, and it is a chore but it quite obviously was needed. Any experience/suggestions?? Thanks, JCB.
