Depends on the faucet. The dome that the handle comes out of most likely comes apart where the curve meets the straight part of the faucet. On some, the whole piece comes off and the handle is held on with a nut under the dome. Most have a ring of ridges around the center piece to grip it. It will come apart where it is supposed to. If the faucet has leaked much the cap will most likely be corroded in place. It wouldn't hurt to spray the faucet with some lubricant such as WD-40 or other penetrating lubricant the day before you try to take it apart.

How do I loosen a tight faucet attachment?
I have always used a faucet wrench with the 'floppy' end. -Only occasionally find one impossible, in which case i carefully cut it off from the top with a disc grinder. If you do this, be extremely careful you don't touch the sink or tub with it.
In kitchen why is water only coming out water spout and not main faucet?
Single and two handled faucets are different in the exact mechanism but the overall process is the same. Inside of the faucet there is a valve that diverts water from the main spout to the sprayer. Squeezing the sprayer handle opens its valve, releases pressure in the faucet, and diverts water to the sprayer.It sounds like this internal valve is jammed or broken.Call the manufacturer. I had this problem in the kitchen and Moen (the maker) provided directions on how to fix it. They can also direct you to a source for the parts.Visit a plumbing supply store. If you go during the less busy times of the day (late morning before lunch for example) they will often take the time to work with you.Replace the faucet.

How do you increase water flow in price pfister ashfield faucet?
easy fix if you haven't already fixed it....take the main part of the faucet apart so all you have is the long threaded tubing with the faucet housing. turn it upside down and look into the threaded tube and you will see a water restricter that is built into the water feed. it has a small rubber washer that is visible and is orangish yellow. Take a screw driver smaller than the tube and punch it thru the restrictor to dis-lodge the restricter. remove as much as the left over pieces of the restricter as you can. do your best to cup your hand over the other end of the faucet and blow as much out as you can. re-assemble the faucet and turn on your water and walla! high water pressure...ps. dont turn the hot and cold on full or you will be taking a bath!!

How do you replace an outdoor faucet?
Shut of the water to the faucet. If a local shut off is not present then the main house shut off will have to be used, or the cutoff at the meter. unless plastic pipe is used then the faucet screws onto the water pipe. It will probably take a pipe wrench on the pipe and the faucet to break it free. use Teflon tape to cover the pipe threads before screwing on the new faucet. Turn the water back on and check for leaks.
