Filter Service

Airaid recommends following the manufac­turers maintenance schedule for filter clean­ings.

“Air filters should be inspected before each ride. Filter and

pre-filter need to be replaced at least annually and more often
if subjected to severe use.”

The Airaid Filter is reusable and

should be cleaned using the Airaid Filter Tune

-Up Kit .

1. Loosen the Clamps on the Hump Hose and slide it
back. Remove the 1/4” bolts and washers from the Air­box Top and slide out the Top.

Pre Filter Option

For maximum protection in the harshest of environ­ments Airaid offers a slip on Pre Filter.

- Prolongs Cleaning Intervals

- Water Repellant

- Free Flowing Protection

Part Number 799-456

2. Remove the Plug Grommet in the access port and

loosen the filter Clamp. A 1/4” drive ratchet with a 3”
extension and a 5/16” socket works best.

For your Oiled media filter we

suggest using the AIRAID Filter
