Hello!

The 39-107 cover simply snaps on to install. Thanks for posting!

Hi. I'm having difficulty taking the handle off to snap on the cover. Do I just need to use more force. I was afraid to break the crank. Thanks

These handles are installed in only one of two ways: a tiny set screw that keeps it braced to the spline or pressure-fit springs inside the hole that snap around the spline instead. If it's a set screw, you would simply remove the screw. If it's a pressure-fit ring, then it needs to pull off and it will take a little elbow grease.

If you're scared to do so, you could see if WD-40 can coax it out.
