I have a DEGX2. How do I remove the circular mesh filter behind the lint bucket?

Question edited for a lot more clarity. The fluff is 'lint'. 'Lent' is a religious holiday before Easter!
Question moved from Laundry Dryers category.

The normally come of by turning about 10 degrees anti clockwise and pulling gently.

check to see if lint build up is causing your thermal switch to trip. Pull out the lint trap and you'll see 1 Phillips head screw behind where the lint trap normally sits. Remove the screw, and you'll feel the circular plastic piece the lint trap sits in become loose...pull this round piece out of the dryer from the bottom. If there is a lot of lint behind this circular plastic piece, that's probably what's tripping the heat sensor. Vac it out. Gently feel around the circumference of where you removed the piece to see if the fine mesh lint screen has any holes (if it does, it may be blowing lint into your exhaust and eventually clog the vent to the outside). If the mesh is torn, I assume that larger circular piece needs to be replaced at some point in whole or part. From what I can see, the design of the lint filter and trap is ....****. The system allows lint to enter the area where the heat sensor sits.

The short term fix is to vac out the sensor area regularly and that will keep the switch from tripping, if that is your actual problem.
this was answered by someone else a year or so ago on this site thought i'd pass it on.
Hope this works.

Perhaps none. Have you checked to see if the lint filter is blocked? Usually, the lint filter can be accessed from the front bottom of the machine, often behind a small door. Open the door, open the filter (have a bucket available to catch water) and remove the blocking ball of lint.

Step 1:

1- look if the fan are blowing

Step 2:

look if there's lint traffic jam (use a vaccum)

No, not officially, however there is a metal grill or mesh behind the front vents that will plug up with lint and not allow air to flow through the front vents. If you remove the upper dash board you can get to it. It took me an entire day to get to it and reassemble my car. It is permanently secured in place with adhisve backed foam, but with the dashboard removed i was able remove it. Considering the difficuly in accessing it i decided to throw away the mesh and then i bought some foam a/c gaskit material to put back around where the mesh was before reassembling the car.

It could be a venting problem. Check the lint filter and the vent pipe to make sure they are not clogged with lint. I have heard that greased lighting works well for cleaning the fine lint filter. Also check where the pipe vents and make sure it is clear. Sometimes vent caps have the mesh screens left on them. When cap vents are used the small mesh screen should be removed so any lint that blows through can clear the venting system. I hope this helps. Link for cleaner: http://www.greased-lightning.com/

Remove the water bucket and you will see the filter behind where the water bucket was located. It's a foam mesh type filter. Using your fingers, reach under the bottom of the filter frame and gently pull to remove it. Wash the filter with warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse and dry well before reinstalling it.

Hope this helped you. Please let me know.

Remove the lower kick plate. Unscrew the two screws holding the kick plate in place, and gently pull off to remove. The kick plate is the lower outside cover of the washing machine.

Place a small bucket under the white hose. Remove the cap on the white hose by untwisting it. Allow any remaining water in the hose to drain into the small bucket. There shouldn't be much water, but there can be some.

Look inside the white hose. Remove any visible obstructions or lint.

Look inside the hose cap. This is where the lint filter is. Remove any visible lint with your fingers. Rinse the hose cap under warm water to remove any remaining lint.

Twist the cap back onto the white hose. Put the kick plate back in place. Screw back on.

If you are collecting more on the outside of the house means the lint filter has a tear in it and the lint in being pulled through the tear and pushed out the exhaust. It sounds like you need a new filter but this isn't cheap. If you do it your self it will run about $70 if you get a repair man it will cost about $150.
