Kitchen faucet repair

Does any one know how to take this apart. Leaking from top. Justyne maglio model k-5050 was. There is a small set screw on back of handle, I took it out and nothing loosened.??

Handle is stuck. Pull harder. Call the mfrs customer service for details. You will have to get a cartridge from them anyway.

Manufacturer is no longer. I’m trying to get it apart so I can see if another cartridge will work. Thx

Try to force it apart without breaking it.

Gently rocking back and forth can help. Or not so gently.

the handle itself, correct

At the base of the handle.

Ok

Under the handle should be the cartridge, correct?

Under handle and lock nut replaced cartridge. Working good. Thanks for the reply
