The filters on these pool pumops could be a catridge, which should be hosed until no dirt is visible. There is also the  Diatomaceous earth (DE), these are filter bags that should be emptied regulary.  Be sure to watch the pressure gauge when cleaning, too much pressure could cuase damage to the pump.
