I'm wanting to remove this tap head to change the cartridge. I have undone the small allen key at the back. But couldn't get the tap head to remove to reveal the cartridge. Any tips please?

It should pull off once the grub screw has been removed, it might be stuck from the scale.
 
The hole to access the grub screw will be under the handle or the back of it and be covered by a stopper.
 
Thanks any tips to remove if it is?
Elbow grease, but protect any surfaces that might be damaged or scratched. It might prove necessary to replace the whole tap if it doesn't budge
