For extra safety, you can turn off the main switch at the top of the rack to be sure the collector won't start up while you're working on it. You can also just take the remote and set the Sawstop's iVac rocker switch to off.  After the collector fan has stopped, remove the white plastic cap on the bin at the base of the filter stack.  Scoop out the dust with your hand and into a bucket.  This dust will be very fine - try not to breath it.  Don't use a vacuum to clean the bin.  The fine dust will go through most vacuum filters.

Use a combination of tapping and compressed air to dislodge dust from the filter pleats.  You can tap with your hands or a plastic mallet on the outside of the filter.  Don't get too crazy or you will dent the filter.  Tap all around and the whole length.  Two or three minutes of tapping will probably be enough unless the filter is really dirty.  Compressed air from the hose reel above the assembly table can also be used. Spray the air all around the filter, keeping the nozzle an inch away from the mesh of the filter.  Closer than that or using > 90 psi air pressure can damage the filter material.  Replace the white cap and turn on the filter.  IF the pressure is 1.25" or less you're done.
