oh, hey, you SURE you are turning it in the proper direction, correct? Righty-tighty / Lefty-loosey and all that.

Right hand rule. Stick your thumb in the direction you want the filter to go (out/down) and curl your remaining 4 fingers up. The direction your fingers are pointing (in that around motion) is the direction you should be turning the filter.

Good luck.
