How To Empty Shark Rocket Pet Vacuum

Maintaining a clean home with pets can be a daunting task, but the Shark Rocket Pet Vacuum is here to make it effortless. To keep your vacuum operating at its peak performance, it’s crucial to empty it regularly. This blog post will provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to empty your Shark Rocket Pet Vacuum, ensuring a hassle-free cleaning experience.

Step 1: Locate the Dirt Tank

The dirt tank is located on the front of the vacuum cleaner. It’s a clear plastic container that collects the dirt and debris sucked up by the vacuum.

Step 2: Press the Release Button

On the top of the dirt tank, you’ll find a release button. Press this button to detach the dirt tank from the vacuum cleaner.

Step 3: Empty the Dirt Tank

Take the dirt tank to a trash can and empty its contents. Be sure to shake out any remaining dirt or debris.

Step 4: Clean the Filter

The filter is located inside the dirt tank. Remove it by pulling it out of the tank. Rinse the filter under running water until the water runs clear. Allow the filter to air dry completely before reinserting it into the dirt tank.

Step 5: Clean the Cyclone Chamber

The cyclone chamber is located behind the dirt tank. Remove it by detaching the clips that hold it in place. Use a damp cloth to wipe away any dirt or debris from the cyclone chamber.

Step 6: Reassemble the Vacuum Cleaner

Once all the components are clean and dry, reassemble the vacuum cleaner. Attach the dirt tank to the vacuum cleaner, insert the filter into the dirt tank, and reattach the cyclone chamber.

Step 7: Empty the Dust Cup

The dust cup is located on the top of the vacuum cleaner. It collects fine dust particles that pass through the filter. To empty the dust cup, press the release button on the side of the cup and remove it from the vacuum cleaner. Empty the contents into a trash can and reattach the dust cup to the vacuum cleaner.
