How do I remove this POS shower handle?

[Disoblige]

So, this POS shower handle that I used around 30 times or less in the past 2 years stripped itself and it doesn't catch whatsoever. Just utter poor quality. No screws or anything but I don't want to damage it further by yanking on it too hard. It doesn't seem to want to budge. Edit: Just googled it's a Blu brand faucet TSP821S (http://www.blubathworks.com/media/438910/2014_01_install_pb_showermixers.pdf)

Anyone have any insight on how to remove the handle? Thing still isn't budging and not sure what 8) on the diagram is (the hell is a grubbing screw?). Any help would be appreciated. Ugh, I hate this bathroom as this is not the only crappy/flimsy thing about it.

Thanks for reading.

It will have a tiny hole with an allen head screw. You might have to pull it out slightly to see the hole.

I think the set screw (aka grub screw) is under the extension on the handle. Pop it off and see.

Thanks guys. But set screw and grub screw are 2 different pieces, no?
So initially I was already able to take of the little lever (#10) and set screw (#9). I assume #8 is the grub screw. Hopefully it means I can get that out with an allen key. I don't have any tools on me here :rofl:

It seems that once that set screw is removed, you have to unscrew the handle instead of just pulling it off. (be careful though, as it might be a reverse thread).

Yeah. I have a feeling it is completely stripped already because I can rotate the handle freely both left and right. The hope is that only the handle is damaged and not anything else.

That handle might also have a decorative cap with a screw or two behind it. Do you see a seam at the edge?

Part 7 could be a cap. Use a flathead screwdriver to see if you can lift it off. Even distribution of force around Part 7 could determine if it's a cap or not.

Yeah once I unscrewed the grub screw, it was a cap. Turns out the grub screw was just loose and was shaving some of the brass. Thankfully it wasn't a threaded connection to take the cap off because I would have been sure I damaged something.

Case closed! Thanks everyone.
