I completely agree with you. It has been a week and I still have a scab on my arm from trying to put that FVCK'N bolt in. Tried for 45 min. WAS PISSED. Left the bolt out. Unless you have tiny hands, PITA. I am very disappointed in stillen that in order to clean the filter, you have to remove the whole sys. Looks great, But could have been designed better.
