Hey Dan, nice to hear from you.

The intake filter will probably screw into a hole near the top of the air cylinder piston assembly.

If your regulator adjustment knob won't budge, it's either pooched, or you need either to pull it down or push it up to unlock it, and then it might turn.

Good luck.

Cheers,

Bill
