Re: Photo resurrection - 2006 multiport gasket install
Sorry I forgot to mention the 'notch' on the multi - above the inlet/ outlet ports! However, you figured out that your orientation is 180* different from what the valve says (backwash is filter, recirc is waste, and closed is rinse) - you turned your SP710XR50 into a SP710X50, i.e. a sand filter multi LOL.
If you can get a decent price on the 715 (2") multi - it might be worth while to switch the valve and upgrade the filter pad piping to 2". Just a thought.

It's all on me for not checking the handle orientation.
I took pictures before I started and when I was ready to finish I checked the before pic and it all looked good.
But I had this strange feeling I was playing roulette.
No biggie, I'll fix it Sunday. Off to the lake tomorrow.
Oh, and the action is smoooth now.
