The air filter may be declared as part of the air intake system on aircraft- side and so might not be a part of the Engine Type Design. Such a PAC part has been then tested and released by BRP-Rotax, but it might not be certified for the relevant engine type. In such a case the correct function in conjunction with the entire system is the responsibility of the aircraft manufacturer and must be carried out jointly with the aircraft
Labor time and credit
Estimated labor hours: Engine installed in the aircraft labor time will depend on airframe installation and therefore no estimate is available from the engine manufacturer.

Installation
NOTE: New ROTAX® air filter part no. 825900 is pre-oiled and needs no further preparation before installation.
| Step | Procedure |
| 1 | Remove new air filter from the packaging and ensure that the inside of the filter is clean and free of foreign objects. |
| 2 | Clean and de-grease the air filter mounting flange and clamp area. |
| 3 | Place the air filter onto the aircrafts air inlet. Tighten clamp in p |
NOTE: Residual filter oil in the mounting flange area may inhibit secure attachment. The air filter must be secured by clamp attachment and a wire securing element.
| Step | Procedure |
| 1 | Liberally spray K&N Air Filter Cleaner onto both sides of filter and allow to soak for 10 minutes to loosen deposits. Do not allow cleaner to dry on air filter. |
| 2 | Rinse off the air filter with cool low-pressure water applied to the clean side out in order to flush the dirt out of the air filter. Continue to rinse the air filter until all traces of cleaner are gone. It may be necessary to repeat steps 1 and 2. |
| 3 | After rinsing your filter, gently shake off the excess water and only allow air filter to dry naturally. Do not apply oil until the air filter is completely dry (6-8 hrs). |
| 4 | Apply K&N air filter oil sparingly along the crown of each pleat. Allow the oil to wick for approximately 20 minutes then touch up any light areas on either side of air filter until there is a uniform light pink color at all areas. |
