Synthamax Air Filters do not re­quire oil. Service air filter 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 filter and allow to
soak. Then flush filter clean from
the inside out with a garden hose
and repeat steps if necessary. Do
not apply high pressure water or
air to clean filter. Allow filter to
air dry and reinstall.
