Toss it really high in the air and let it crash to the ground about 15
ft away. Repeat numerous times.
Dust blows away and you're not standing in it like you would be if you
banged it against the wall.
On occasion I'll blast each pleat with a hose to get it really clean
and then let it dry in the sun.
I'm kinda liking the fine filter bag suggested by another poster. I
will look into that.
