K & N Air Filter Service Instructions

  1. Tap the element to dislodge any large embedded dirt, then gently brush it a soft bristle brush.
  2. Spray K & N Air filter cleaner liberally onto the entire element and let filter soak for about 10 minutes.Clean 1
  3. Rinse off the element with low pressure water. Tap water is OK. Always flush from the clean side to the dirty side. This removes the dirt and does not drive it into the filter.

Caution:

Use only K & N air filter cleaner! Clean 2
Do Not use gasoline!
Do Not steam clean!

 

Do Not use caustic leaning solutions!
Do Not use strong detergents!
Do Not use high pressure car wash!
Do Not use parts cleaning solvents!

Clean 3

The use of any of the above can cause harm to the COTTON filter media,
plus shrink and harden the rubber end caps.

  1. Always dry naturally. After rinsing , shake off all excess water and let the element dry naturally.

Caution:
Do Not use compressed air
Do Not use open flame
Do Not use heat dryers

Excess heat will shrink the cotton filter media. While compressed air will blow holes in the element.

  1. After cleaning air filter always re-oil before using. If using K&N aerosol - spray oil down into each pleat with one pass per pleat. WAIT 10 minutes and re-oil any white spots still showing.

Oil

If using K&N squeeze bottle - squeeze K&N air filter oil down into the bottom and along each pleat - only one pass per pleat. Let oil wick into cotton for 20 minutes. Re-oil any white spots still showing.

  1. Reinstall your K&N airfilter element. Make sure that clamp is tight and airfilter is safety wired.

Caution:

Never use a K&N air filter without oil. (The filter will not stop the dirt without the oil.) Use only K&N formulated air filter oil.

K&N air filter oil is a compound of mineral and animal oil blended with special polymers to form a very efficient tack barrier. Red dye is added to show just where you have applied the oil. Eventually the red color will fade but the oil will remain and will filter the air.

Safety Wire



Never Use automatic transmission fluid!
Never Use motor oil!
Never Use diesel fuel!
Never Use WD-40, LPS, or other light weight oils!

Performance Hints

Service airfilter every 6 months or 50 hours of airtime - more frequently in dirty conditions.

Attention:
The K&N airfilter designed for AIRCRAFT applications has a tab on it that allows the filter(s) to be safety wired to the carburetor.
