Turn it 90º to one side or the other then it'll "lift icon_lol.gif " out.

Thanks for that Chris. Have turned spout to left as feels slacker at that side. Feels difficult/tight to come out. icon_sad.gif Presume as this is v.hard water area that it will be scaled badly? Should I rock it back and forward or just a steady pull upwards?
All help gratefully received !
Cheers.
PS . No maker's name but outline of swan on both tap tops ! Clue there maybe ?
