Synthamax Air Filters do not require oil. Service
air lter as needed by cleaning with common
non-petroleum all-purpose household cleaner
and water. Simple Green®, Formula 409® or
equivalent works great. Apply cleaner to outside of
air lter and allow to soak. Then ush lter clean
from the inside out with a garden hose and repeat
steps if necessary. Do not apply high pressure
water or air to clean lter. Allow lter to air dry
and reinstall.
