A hard one to help because I would need to see it and the area involved which would determine a method. Wire cutters of suitable size are good for pozi-philips types gripping between side and centre "hole". A fine metal saw to cut a slot (jewelers metal saw) which are inexpensive if small screws are involved I find are good. You could file two flats on the head on opposite sides or use a Dremel type tool with diamond disc to do it, so to get a better grip. If its a screw in a brass insert into plastic then a small amount of heat (soldering iron) to soften plastic (via the screw head) its inserted in then prise out in a vertical manner, then re-glue insert back in after sorting things out. If we are talking about a screw into a metal threaded item then praying its not stainless steel drill that screw out with a cobalt type (very hard compared to HSS steel) drill bit starting under thread size working up, at some point the head may come off, depending on screw size a square file tip can be inserted in the hole to act as a gripper but beware small files are brittle so would break if over forced. Larger types of this method would involve a shaped Allen key to wedge in this hole or a nail like a masonry type which is hard duly shaped with four flat sides to grip. I could go on but I think you got the principle ideas, only you can evaluate which is best, my advice is to think out methods rather than jump straight in that suit this event. Hope this helps......

you need to change the valve thats broken.i used a spanner for ours

Try running some white vinegar through it as if you was making coffee (but don't use any coffee) and when done either repeat processes or run a clean pot of water to clean out the vinegar and see if the water is coming out faster. You might need to repeat process a few times. The vinegar breaks down any hard water residue.

see if you can find your manual at this link. https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&rlz=1C1CHBD_en-GBGB719GB719&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=manual+La+Pavoni+Pub2

I HAD the same problem. I fixed it for 50 cents. It takes the removal of 4 screws (2 phillips on top, 2 long standard on bottom by the group) to remove the top to access the steam wand valve. Once the the top (and the chrome bezel) is removed, then screw out the valve counterclockwise buy ALL THE WAY until it comes out. There are 2 O-rings on the stem of the valve that wear out, Cut these off with a sharp knife, go to your local hardware store, buy 2 new ones for 50 cents, install new O-rings, and reverse the disassembly procedure. Voila, no more leaky steam valve!

hi it is normal when water heating up and pressure begin to be built in the boiler until the vacuum braker at the safety valve close but if it continue to whistle when the green light goes off after few minutes it means you have too much pressure in the boiler and it is realesed through the safety valve in that case you have to replace your pressurestat or you have scale at the bottom of boiler in the entrance of the pipe leading to the pressurestat regards Guy

Hi if there is Vapor coming from the grouphead when the lever is down then I would guess there is a problem with the seals around the piston and possibly elsewhere. Here is a link to a goos site that looks at repairing La Pavoni lever machines. Good luck. DIY dr pavoni

Service lubrication new seals ? see site below loads of info pics etc

Again sounds like the seals are damaged and or need some lubrication and a service link below to a good site dr pavoni
