Hi all,

 

I went to undertake a seeming simple task of replacing some washers for the bathroom basin taps.

 

Something I have done before, and usually there is a screw under the head cap the holds the head down.

 

In this case, there is no screw, and I am somewhat stumped.  I have googled it to death, and cant find anything about it.

 

Has anyone come across or seen something like this, or have any idea on how to remove the head? 

 

I have attached some pictures.

 

Thanks in advance.

Now that you've unthreaded that thingy, the handle should come off.

You might have to lever it from both sides at the same time.

The head cap is the securing screw. Now you have removed the cap it should come off, but may need a bit of leverage if it's been a while. Using a screwdriver and easing it up from underneath should do it.
