DAf Yomi -Toiltet Tank Covers

DAF HASHAVUA
Shabbos 126b

             כיסוי קרקעות אם יש להן בית אחיזה אין אי לא 

 According to Mori V'Rabi Harav Hagaon R Shlomo Miller שליט"א
 One may remove and/or return the cover of the toilet tank on שבת.

 Even though it is a cover to a מחובר לקרקע {toilet) and should
 need a handle* (בית אחיזה) but since it is easily removed by holding
 on to the sides, it is considered as if it has a בית אחיזה



Otherwise, it is like בונה

    IMHO, whenever a ruling is made about something, one first needs to explain what the that something looks like.
    I am not sure if R' Miller would allow the Israeli ones.
