@aemackintosh

I prefer to keep the filter in as much as possible, it protects the motor. You will notice that muck coming into the machine hits the filter in a particular place. So after emptying, try to keep that dirty patch in the same place. If the whole filter becomes dirty/damp it will start to hinder the performance.😃👍🏼

I would keep the filter in if you can. It will get wet in the spot where the muck comes into the drum but as long as the whole filter doesn’t become wet you will be fine. Just make sure you put it back in the same place after you empty the drum.😃👍🏼
