Thanks for the help, however when I tried a handle puller, but the lower part did not seem to reach a solid surface to push against while the thread part makes contact with the handle and so it seems I'm not getting outward pull, just squeezing the handle? Or should I be brave and tighten the handle puller no matter what?
Maybe the picture shows the problem? I also tried another brand of handle puller and same issue.
This is awkward, but...
