A firm tap on the concrete will loosen some dirt.

Compressed Air from the inside out helps a bit. Use you local garages compressed air if you haven't a compressor at home.

It will eventually need changing but it will help some ( according to those who know ).

Do you really need one? The only time you "need" to change a filter is when its clogged enough to effect performance. A dirtier (paper) filter actually filters better that a clean one.

Don't stress about it. Give it a tap out and run it until you can afford a new one.
