Great Way to Caulk Tub Valve Handle and Cover

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

Take the tub shower handle and slide it onto the valve stem. Ensure it is oriented correctly, typically with the lever pointing downwards or horizontally when in the 'OFF' position. Locate the small set screw on the underside or back of the handle. Use a 7/64 inch Allen wrench to tighten this set screw firmly, securing the handle to the valve stem. This prevents the handle from slipping or coming off during use.

Goal: Attach and secure the handle to the valve stem
