    I've changed mine twice. The plastic nut just doesn't hold the handle tight. It stays in place and the handle slides in and out of it. Plastic just doesn't have the grip. What can I do? This is two new handle sets that I've done in one month. The first snapped the same night I changed it and the second one just slides about. I tighten it, it just gets to a point where I'm moving the spanner round and the nut is turning yet it's just not 'bonding' to the cistern wall. Do I bond it in place to stop this happening?

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  Год назад +1

      I think that's the issue, the handle isn't meant to be super tight, it will always feel quite loose. The plastic nut should only be tightened up hand tight, not really tight with a spanner. I wouldn't glue it, that will cause more issues. Good luck.

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 года назад

      Maybe it’s a broken mechanism. It will never be really tight else it won’t move at all, it will always be slightly loose.

    I can tighten it up, but it comes loose, again, in a few days.

    • @LurgsHowToGuides
      @LurgsHowToGuides  2 года назад +2

      Is the actual plastic nut loose inside the toilet cistern? This should be fairly tight, the actual toilet handle will always have some play in it and feel slightly loose.

      Tightening that nut shouldn’t affect the handle, maybe it’s missing a part? Have a look at my video how to install a new one to see the parts involved. Link in
