WE PURCHASED THE BLACK AND DECKER CORDLESS CHV1568 15.6 VOLTS HAND VAC RECENTLY. I READ THE DIRECTIONS, PLUGGED IT IN AND LET IT CHARGE FOR THE SUGGESTED LENGTH OF TIME. I VACUMED A SMALL AREA AND SEEMED TO GET SOME DEBRIS COMING OUT FROM BETWEEN THE MOTOR SECTION AND THE FILTER SECTION.
OPENING IT AND REMOVING THE FILTER WHICH WAS VERY DIRTY, I CLEANED IT OUT AND THEN COULD NOT GET THE FILTER TO TWIST BACK ONTO THE MOTOR SECTION. i THOUGHT THAT I MUST NEED A SECOND FILTER TO HELP. I WENT BACK TO THE STORE WITH MY DIRECTIONS AND WAS TOLD THIS ONLY HAD A SINGLE FILTER.
RETURNING HOME, I TRIED AGAIN TO GET THE FILTER BACK ON. THERE SEEMS TO BE TWO PLACES ON THE MOTOR HEAD THAT THE FILTER SHOULD TWIST BACK INTO. I CAN’T EVEN GET THE FILTER TO SIT ON THE FIXTURE.
WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW TO REPLACE THE FILTER, BESIDES WHAT THE DIRECTIONS, G1 G2 in the instruction manual say, which make no sense to me. I have arthritis in my hands, but it could not be that difficult to replace. In the simplest terms, please suggest how to attach the filter to the housing. and then tell me why it is not advertised on the box or anyplace else on the vac why it only needs one filter. RIGHT NOW I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS APPLIANCE. SANDBCOON

This replacement filter works well with the Black and Decker Cordless Vacuum CHV1568. The manual says to replace the filter every 6-9 months but I seem to use up the filters much quicker even with washing the filters.
To Beth: The vacuum uses a single filter. And there is a filter housing (that holds the filter) that must be re-attached to the vacuum motor housing. The old filter should be pulled out from the housing and replaced with a new filter. The filter housing has 3 holes that go back onto the vacuum motor housing. Basically, you should be doing the opposite of Figure G to re-attach the filter housing — fit the filter housing into place over the 3 pegs (2 on top, 1 on bottom) and twist counter-clockwise.
