Below are some pics of my filter. The instructions seem to indicate that I twist the whole black section (filter valve) off the top separating it where it meets the beige tank. Is this correct?
Want to check my filter, but how?

Yes, the black portion is called a multi-port valve and it will unscrew just like yu say (although perhaps not easily.
A pool without a pressure guage is all guesswork. It is absolutley essential to operate your pool effectively. They're about 7-10 bucks.

Just to anticipate the next question -- you can pull the plug on the side of the multi (shown in the first pic) and replace it with the gauge 
Also, be sure to take care of the o-ring and sealing area when reinstalling the multiport
While I'm at it, curse whomever plumbed your system
Those barbed fittings are outdated and EVIL!! 
Have a fun summer with the pool :-D

I found the box of fittings and the gauge in the basement. YEAY! Thanks for the help. I think all I need are the hoses.
