Abstract
A lever handle assembly for a sanitary water fixture which includes a spindle for actuating the fixture. The lever handle assembly comprises the handle adapter, a handle sleeve having a handle lever, and a friction coupling. The handle adapter nonrotatably connects over the spindle, and the friction coupling couples the handle adapter to the handle sleeve, whereby the spindle can be selectively opened or closed by actuating the handle lever.
