Hi,

Either there is a small grub screw on the base section, behind the mixer.
In which case you will need a very small slotted screwdriver.
Or it is the ball catch type, whereby you have to face the mixer inline with the base and pull sharply upwards, could be be to to left if my memory serves me right.
O rings need replacing, smear with silicon grease before refitting. |

Sometimes theres a sneaky little cover often disguised as a hot/ cold indicator prise it off carefully and theres usually a grub screw under that.
If you could post a pic of the tap front and back if poss we may be able to help further |
