You should see a shut off valve for the hot and cold water; shut these off using a flat head screwdriver.
Remove the old shower faucet and cartridge. To place the faucet handle, slide it into the valve. Using a hexagonal key, place the handle screw adapter in the cartridge. The show head can be screwed in manually using a wrench. The spout can be installed by turning it on the pipe so the screw faces up. Tighten the screw with the hexagonal key then flip the spout.
Finally, turn the hot and cold water supply to check for leaks. You now have a decorative copper shower faucet.
