I have removed the little set screw securing the "L" shaped handle to the base.

However I cannot wiggle, pry or otherwise get the handle to release.

There does not seem to be any corrosion. The handle was installed 20 years ago.

Anyone with an idea?

Spray some WD-40 through the set screw hole leave it soaked for a few minuets and tap it with a soft object like a plastic screw driver handle, wiggle it try to pull it up it will come lose and you be able to remove it, good luck.

Sometimes they just stick. Purchase a handle puller,(see image) and force that sucker right off from there. Good luck, tom

WOW ! JADO and 20 years old ! That's a new one !

Well, Wiggle it out. Or, keep tapping it with screwdriver handle. It will eventually get loose.
