Hello,
I could use some help please. I'm based in Chicago, IL.
I would like to change the cartridge on this Hansgrohe shower valve. However, I can't figure out how to remove the handle.
The small hole does not appear to accept an allen key. Any ideas on how to remove this? A guess as to what model cartridge?
And, whether it might have integral shut offs for the hot and cold?
Thank you,
Peter

If that sleeve with the hole rotates try moving it around and see if you can find a set screw.

It looks like it might be one of these?

You need to take your trim off to this point. the four screws on this brass body hold the Grohe cartridge you need to replace. there are 3 different cartridges it could be. you will need to remove it first for identification before ordering.
CENTRALFL has posted a link in this post (above) to a previous conversation....that should help you in removing the trim.
Good luck.
