Anybody successfully removed the handles (necessary to remove the ceramic cartridges) from these taps with L-shaped handles?
might have the destructions stashed away somewhere, dunno it it'll have dismantling instructions rather then just fittig instructions.
Is this enough to show whether one is a re-badged version of the other? If so, it shows an exploded diagram of the tap with part numbers.
Spoke to someone at Blanco today who said they're just push-fit +_ grub screw locking onto splined shafts, but that if the cartridges leak a bit into the splines they can scale up. So bigger hammer it is ;-) Oh that and a loada wonga to them for their cartridges which look different enough from the 'standard'(-ish) types I've got as spares on the van that I'll probably have to go for them.

Why is it that these days here in London, despite all the great leaps forward in technology, line scale due to hard water is far worse than in

I did hit it hard a few times with a plastic covered heavy screwdriver. The hot one has now come off, but I think I've broken it. I'll attach a photo. I've got the curculio out, but still no further. Heeeellllpppp. I have now given up before I do anymore damage. ??
