Many times the original filters are a real bear to get off.
My first filter change on the Branson 8050 was the worst I ever had.
None of my filter wrenches worked, even the chain wrenches won't budge it.
Screwdriver thru, nope just cut a slot when trying to turn it.
I ended up with a long chisel and a hammer, using the chisel on the flange of the filter and hammering it in the direction of rotation,
once it turned about an inch I could spin it off.
