How do I remove and replace a hayward xstream filter lock ring. Locking ring cracked and I can’t remove it from upper body. I am sure I’ll have same issue installing new one. Looked online and called Hayward. No help from either.
I have the 1500. I purchased the replacement ring already from in the swim. Had to use hacksaw to get old one off. Now fighting to get new one on. Even use O ring lube on it. Hopefully someone has the answer. Pools is closed so I don’t have to rush it. Just don’t want to break anything else. Thank youWelcome to TFP
Seems you are not the only person not able to get the ring off... It sure looks like it comes off from the manual.. What version do you have? 1000 or 1500?
1 of the reviews here also could not get it off and bought the lid with lock ring... It may not come off and that is why they sell the lid with lock..

I hope this helps
Can you update? I have the same issue. Can’t find any answers...it’s sold separately so it should come off right? Jeez.
