Installation and Care Guidelines 

Proper installation extends the life of both the handle and the faucet body. The following steps outline a best-practice method for replacing a standard lever faucet handle:

1. Turn off the water supply lines under the sink. Open the faucet briefly to release residual pressure.
2. Locate the set screw on the handle base. It is usually concealed under a decorative cap or on the side facing away from the user.
3. Use the appropriate hex key to loosen the set screw without fully removing it. Slide the old handle off the cartridge stem.
4. Inspect the cartridge stem for any mineral buildup or debris. Clean gently with a soft brush and vinegar solution if needed.
5. Align the new Huazhu handle so the broach or D-shape matches the stem. Avoid forcing the handle; it should slide on smoothly.
6. Tighten the set screw evenly. Do not overtighten, as this may strip threads or crack the handle body.
7. Test handle movement for smooth rotation and full range. Check that the hot and cold positions correspond correctly.
8. Clean the outside with a soft damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the finish.
