INSTRUCTIONS

Removing the old L handle

your broken piece may look something like this picture below for the horizontal handle. If you broke the vertical adjustment handle, it is the same process for removal. Lets hope it’s a simple removal where you can just back it out, otherwise the instructions below will help you remove it.

If you are able to, grip the sheared off piece with vice grips and rotate counter clockwise to remove the broken L handle. If it keeps spinning, you are going to need to break the plastic part to reveal the metal head underneath that is easier to grip by cutting the plastic housing.

If needed, use a small hacksaw with fine teeth suitable for metal/bi-metal. Create a vertical cut approximately half an inch behind where the lever was previously placed until the blade hits the metal inside the bolt (you are cutting through the plastic remainder of what is left). Rotate the saw and repeat this process until a complete 360-degree cut has been made.

Create a horizontal cross-sectional cut (the idea is to totally remove all the plastic on the broken handle and expose the metal, trust me the old handle is going in the garbage, its OK if its not perfectly clean, the goal is to give yourself a nice grip on the metal of what is left) and use pliers to remove pieces until the bolt is exposed. Use pliers to rotate and remove the bolt by gripping the newly exposed metal piece under the plastic. It may require more turning than expected and may resist at the end. To prevent it from falling, consider removing the seat entirely. Ensure you take your time installing the new replacement bolts straight. There should not be any resistance until 13 rotations of either bolt.
