I have a Kohler K-12171-CP faucet. I want to remove the handle to replace the cartridge or o-rings. I have the set screwed removed but the handle still does not come off. I have tried jiggling and some upward pressure on the handle but still no luck.
Any tricks of the trade?

We carry a handle puller, (see image) for those stubborn handles. You can pick one up at any plumbing supply place. **OR** wiggle some more and pull straight up. Good luck, Tom
