Hi all
I have a sticking basin lever tap. I’m trying to take it apart to see if I can sort it, potentially replace the cartridge. I’ve got to the point where I believe I’m meant to remove the copper part of the tap in the picture, however it’s a circular bit that I can’t grip with anything. All the inline videos make it out to be hexagonal which mine isn’t. I’ve included a pic of the type of tap it is and the stage I have got to. Really hope someone can advise me.
Cheers
The Gaz
