Very carefully. Follow the manufacturers directions. I am guessing you are cleaning calcium deposits on a DE filter. I would assume that you would dilute the acid with clean water (pouring the acid slowly into the water and not water into acid) and pour enough to cover all of the grids. Then soak over night.

Pour it directly into the pool water, away from the skimmers, but BE CAREFUL......acid tends to bounce when hitting water and can splash back on you!!! Hold the opening right next to the water when pouring. Follow directions on how much you should add (prbly already knew that):)

To lower the pH you can also use powdered sodium bisulfate.

Yes, but be careful, it's very corrosive to many things. Wear mask, goggles and gloves when using it.
