CAUTION
Use only K&N Air Filter Oil, AFS Air Filter Oil,
or an AFS approved substitute.
The filter will not function properly if other types of oil are used. Both K&N Air Filter Oil and
AFS Oil are a unique blend of oil base stocks and special polymers that form a very efficient
“tack barrier.” Dye is added to show areas of oil application. Do not use transmission fluid, any
kind of motor oil, or diesel fuel to oil the AFS filter. Do not use “WD-40,” “LPS,” or any other
type of lightweight spray lubricants to oil the AFS filter. Use of any product other than those
approved by AFS
will
cause damage the filter media and/or frame assembly. The use of any
other oiling material is strictly prohibited and voids any manufacturer warranty.

CAUTION
Use caution not to over oil.
A squeeze bottle allows for the controlled application of a specific amount of oil per filter.
Seven fluid ounces (7 fl. oz., 102465-101) is the quantity to be applied to the forward filter
assembly (P/N 102450-101) and fourteen fluid ounces (14 fl. oz., 102425-101) should be applied
to the upper filter assembly (P/N 102400-101). Lay filter flat, gently squeeze a small stream of
oil along the entire length of each pleat peak, then flip the filter over and repeat this on the
backside. Apply sparingly to ensure coverage of the entire filter.
Use caution not to over oil
.
Let the filter sit for 30 minutes as the oil “wicks” into the surrounding filter media. The oil
wicks most effectively when the filter is laying flat. Apply remaining filter oil (not to exceed the
quantities above) to any areas that are still white or not yet uniform in color.
Use caution not to
over oil
