how do you empty it?

Lift the snap latches and the black power head lifts away from green can. You simply dump out the can.

I have a metal ash can outside and I make sure all ash is cool before I use the vacume.

You just unclip the top (the part that holds the blower) and lift out the blower and the filter. Then dump the metal canister. There are two metal clips on the top edge on opposite sides. (There is no bag)

When you try to empty it outside you will get half of the ashes on your cloths and half on the unite itself.... Messy and poorly designed.

Open the 2 clips along the side. You also have to clean out the filter which i just tap on a tree and all the fines come off.

There are two clips on the top. First you undo them then pull the motor assembly unit off. Underneath that is the filter with a rubber gasket that seals the edge of the tank. Pull that off and you will have access to the ash compartment which you can dump out.

just remove the top fan section and refill the holding tank daily. Empty and clean the holding tank weekly.

Remove the canister from the vacuum like you are going to empty it. Then on the front of the canister the Hoover logo is a clip, lift it slightly (pull away) and the top part pivots up. Under that is the filter. You can now clean the whole canister and wash the filter. Be sure squeeze out as much water as you can and then let it sit on its side for about a day before you re-install it. You can find this on page 11 of the product manual which you can download here: http://hoover.com/file/581/ if you don't already have it.

The cleaning solution has grey tabs on the sides you squeeze. Once that is removed the dirty water tank is below and slides right out. Unscrew dark gray disk to empty.

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.

It's not hard to empty; the part u can't get off is the top that needs to be cleaned occasionally. I have it in a closet; don't think it's strong enough for a whole room.

There is a screw cap on the back of the base of the unit. Just unscrew the cap and empty the waste into a sewage system. Remember to take the upper portion off first to make it easier to handle.

No you can't. I empty it every day wipe up the wetness as much as I can and let it dry out. Once a week I put vinegar in it with water and let it run.

This cannister is very easy to empty, but there is a technique. In order to contain any lose or fine dust, I hold the mouth of the trash bag around the opening of the cannister. When I shake or move the cannister around to loosen any debris, this keeps the dust inside the trash bag and out of my nose!

I do not empty mine. I use it almost every day and I don't remember for sure but believe that the instructions that come with it says to not leave it unused for 7 days. I am not real sure but they do make a suggestion.

Just blow it or pass you finger gently trough it. The use itself helps to keep it clean

This piece just sits in the drain. You just give it a little push. Lift it out to clean it.

You twist the reservoir and take it off to empty it. It's a clear cup that screws right back in when you are ready to use it again.

I don't know if there is a way to get rid of air. I just ended up throwing one of mine out :-(

Sorry but I haven't cleaned it. I just turn it upside down and dump anything left in it out before I fill it up.

Slide the red button on the side of the canister. The bottom will open and then you can dump the dirt.

Hold the white or gray part, turn a little to release the whole thing from the small locking post on the bottom, then just lift the whole thing out.
