Default Vacuuming HEPA filter

I clean my HEPA air filters and other air filters inside my house with my
vacuum cleaner and don't notice any dust coming out of the vacuum.

If you are real sensitive to dust, I would suggest cleaning outside or
having someone else do this.

As a gift, I received a circular Honeywell air purifier, model 50100. It
has a
"Lifetime HEPA Permanent Filter" which one is suppose to vacuum. I'm
trying to
make sense of this logic. When you vacuum the HEPA filter, you're pulling
the
fine particles away from the filter and spewing it everywhere via the
vacuum
cleaner. I'm sure there's some logic behind it, but it just isn't all
that
obvious right now. Insights are appreciated.
