How do I reattach the tap handle. I have a washer and the tap but can not get it to stay on.
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @msbecster. It's brilliant to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about fixing a tap handle.
If you flip the tap handle over and take a look at the top of it, there should be a circular cap in the centre. This cap needs to be flicked off with a fine flathead screwdriver. Inside it, you should hopefully find the nut that screws onto the threaded section of the tap spindle and retains the handle on it. If there is no nut inside, then you might have to pick up a Kinetic Spout And Handle Repair Kit to replace it.
In this guide, step two shows a similar-style tap handle, which should give you a good idea of where the nut lives: How to replace a tap washer.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
