Sink tap cleaning and disassembly help needed All aspects of plumbing questions and answers, help, tips and information

[hyderon]

Hi Our sink tap is sticking a bit , so I want to investigate
I have taken a small grub screw out,
just wondering if the top should pull off now or do I need to undo something else ( it doesn't seem to want to come off and I don't want to break anything)
Thanks

Hi hyderon
The hoop lever is probably fitted onto a square shaft - lever upwards carefully free it.
Regards S
