Unbelievable Milwaukee 0970-20 Fuel Vacuum - It Really Sucks!

What happens here

After collecting debris, demonstrate the ease of emptying the shop vac. Detach the top section of the vacuum and invert the main bin to pour the accumulated sawdust into a trash bag. Then, locate and utilize the quick-release mechanism for the internal filter. Once removed, tap the filter against the inside of the trash bag to dislodge any trapped dust and debris. Finally, reattach the clean filter and secure the top section back onto the main unit, preparing the vacuum for its next use.
