Tried to get to a 1/4 turn tap cartridge today to measure up for a
replacement valve. It's a monobloc style chrome basin tap, nothing expensive. I expected that after removing the cap in the middle of the handle I would see a cross head screw. Undoing that would release the handle from the top of the valve, the chrome shroud would come off, revealing the valve, to unscrew & measure.... Mmm. Removing the cap revealed no screw head? There was what could have been the very end of a small bolt showing in the centre of the newly revealed chrome handle body, but no obvious way to proceed? I even unscrewed 2 of the 4 cross bars on the handle but no grub screws or anything likely were revealed. The other two bars were rather reluctant to move so that was that for then. Anyone seen this type of thing before? Any pointers welcome! TIA -- Jim K ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |
