Dear experts,
Our Rohl A3479 country kitchen single faucet lever/dome is getting very stiff. We have well water with limescale and I'm sure it needs to be cleaned out and/or cartridge replaced. Please see attached diagrams. From this and another diagram of a related unit i eventually realized that the set screw under a set screw cover needs to be loosened, and then the level/dome unit will come off. I loosened the set screw but can't get the level/dome off. I didn't want to break it. I assume it is stuck to the grooved spindle or spindle attachment of the cartridge. Do i just need to patiently wiggle it side to side until it easily comes off? Or do i need to unwedge it e.g. with a flathead screwdriver?
thx in advance for your help,
