It doesn't really get all that dirty;there was just ice water in the tub. You can rinse it out or use a clean cloth. You'd want to occasionally clean the pad too but that's easy as well. I know how two machines as the hospital billed me for one ($900 I kid you not). Anyways if you want to buy one little used machine for $20 plus shipping I'll just send it out (assuming you're in the U.S.)

To clean inside, you need to put a tablespoon of bleach in the water and run it through the boot for about 5 minutes.

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.

Did you clean it every 7 to 10 days with that brush? the instructions are in the booklet. I do not know how old your machine is but they have a very good grantee. Give them a call if you need help and BTW it also comes with a CD what to do. Good luck.

You can clean the container that holds the water. I usually clean it in the sink with dawn detergent and thoroughly rinse it out. The machine comes with a disc that helps to clean the insides. The rest of the machine can be wiped off with a damp cloth. I also find that I have to clean the sensor (the part that reads the UPC code on the discs) occasionally. Hope this helps.

Vacuum it up and thdn wipe/mop it with a cloth and water. It's a good idea to wear a dust mask and some gloves when applying and cleaning up DE.

There is no special cleaning solution with this. You use whatever your equipment provider has recommended. Mine recommended a mild detergent followed by a vinegar and water rinse.

Clean softer stuff the old fashioned way. This machine is too strong for that sort of stuff...

Pull the "floor drawer" out and hose it down. Used an old shop vac to get loose sawdust out first.

There is a filter in the back...use your vacuum to clean it off. There is a filter in the front...take it out and rinse it...let it dry and return it.. That easy.

very easy to clean - rinse or washing machine. I personally use unscented soap/detergent because its a food storage.

Just hose it off, wipe any dirty area's with mild cleaning solution, we use Simple Green to wipe area's then hose off.

Like anything else, it has to be cleaned after each use. It's not hard to thoroughly clean and is a great machine.
