An elongated, hollow nozzle member (12) adjoins the insertion member (10). The nozzle member (12) further defines a tip end (14) having a tip opening (16). The hollow insertion member (10) is joined with the elongated, hollow nozzle member (12) to cooperatively form a vacuum system attachment (8). The insertion member (10) is then inserted into a vacuum system outlet (13), and a lint filter (9) is passed over the tip end (14) to draw the lint or dirt into the nozzle (12) and then into the vacuum system (5).
