Beaten by a switch

Sounds like a USN installation :)

OK, it's done. I used a couple of spoons - thanks to whoever suggested them - to pry with. They worked well because they were thin enough to get under the lip at top and bottom, rounded to provide a fulcrum; two because one can either pry with even or differential pressure at two points.

Thank you for sharing what worked. Very kind of you.

We looked at a house that had a porcelain/cast sink and Formica kitchen counter painted over. The pool pump was sucking air, too. Pass.

HEY, not MY fault it didn't have instructions printed on it :)

Rotating the cover plate do it will slip over the knob is what occurred to me, just like an earlier poster suggested.

It's all ready done but just FYI, the shank of the cross piece prevented rotating the cover plate.

Did you get this off? I had no suggestion at the time, but the vacuum attachment made me think you could use a blow dryer to see if it would expand.
