Using your K&N Universal Air Filter is easy. Just find the right spot for it based on your equipment's air intake system and attach it securely using the rubber flanges. Make sure it fits well and there are no gaps. When it comes to maintenance, keep an eye on how dirty the filter gets. Once it looks dirty, it's time to clean it. You can wash it with a mild detergent and water, then let it dry completely before putting it back. Avoid using harsh chemicals as they can damage the filter. Also, check the rubber flanges regularly for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any issues, it might be time to replace the filter to keep your equipment running smoothly.
