How tight should the knobs be?
Pentair's System 3 manual says to install the clamps, then tighten all clamp knobs securely hand tight in the sequence shown, alternating across the tank rather than working around the filter tightening adjacent clamps.
When is it safe to loosen the knobs?
Stop the pump, open the air release valve and wait until all pressure is released from the filter tank and system before loosening the clamp knobs.
How many clamps does my filter use?
Pentair's parts list says the S7M120 uses 7 clamps and clamp bolts and the S8M150 uses 8.
