Moen 1225 Kitchen Faucet Cartridge Repair or Replacement
Is your your Moen single handle kitchen faucet hard to use or leaking around the handle? If it is you can easily lubricate or replace the 1225 cartridge in the faucet.
If you're the original owner owner of the faucet Moen warrants them to be leak-free for lifetime. I called the 800 number at 1-800-289-6636 and requested a replacement cartridge kit for the faucet (think ours is model 7730). They sent it out no charge in about 10 days.
If your in a hurry you can also buy it from Amazon (Moen 1225 One-Handle Replacement Cartridge).
I shot a video of the dis-assembly and re-assembly of the kitchen faucet:
The kit contained everything you need to replace the cartridge and get the faucet working like new again
Here is a link to a pdf with the Moen 1225 cartridge installation instructions that came in the kit:

Dave, I did this, but the handle will not come off. Any idea why? I have this same model. I removed the set screw completely and handle is hung up....won't come off.
