Mend Remove Tap Cover

How to remove tap cover?

Hi.
A complete novice here so any help much appreciated.
Got a dripping tap and [after trawling the net]am willing to have a go at replacing the washer.My problem is i cant remove the tap cover,there is no screws anywhere not under the hot/cold disks or the side of the tap.I have turned the main water supply off and totaly opened the tap.Is it a case of trying to 'force' open the taps further and removing the covers?Taps are,at least,20 years old and never been removed.
Thanks in advance.
Dave

Hi! This shows how it is done. But I can't actually remove the tap cover anyway. It is stuck fast. Will probably change the tap!!
