Thanks. Before seeing your and charlie's responses, I asked my pool guy. He said he had never done it but to try to loosen the screw that holds the pointer down then move the pointer to the correct position (pointing to 6 o;clock) then tighten screw. I did that but can't tell you if it works yet. I had to add CYA and have had pump running non-stop. The time of day is correct but clips are removed temporarily. more to follow...
on another note,re: my leak problem, I noticed that the waste line from filter was leaking. There is also the possibility that the multi-port valve was leaking when lever was in "filter" position. I'm not sure...too much on my plate and hadn't noticed. Pool guy replaced the top part of the multi-port value. He said the o-ring was bad, and he asked me if I had shocked alot this summer....if he ONLY knew. Anyway, I said yes and he said that's what caused the o-ring to deteriorate. So, my question...is this THE leak? I mean, could I lose alot of water this way?
Thanks.
