My older home has a bathroom sink faucet unit made by Eljer, which is
leaking hot water from the spout. With other faucet units, I would
usually just pry off the cap on the hot water handle and loosen the screw
to get to the washer. However this handle does not have a cap. Instead
the handle is a solid unit shaped kinda like a mushroom. How do I get to
the washer under the hot water handle? I am reluctant to force it off
because I don't want to break or bend anything. Thanks for any advice.

Some of the Eljers are covered in this pdf.

The faucet unit I have is the Eljer Ultima Slant-Back Lavatory on page
1-76. Can you tell from the diagrams how to get the handle off? I
can't figure it out. It definitely does not have a cap that covers the
screw and washer. And I don't see an Allen set screw on the backside of
the handle. Thanks.
