The is a bolt or a screw that you can tighten up, it shouldn't be doing that.  Can't remember if it is uder the handle or on the other side.  Pop the top and see if there is a bolt or screw in the middle.

You should be able to pop the center "round" portion of the handle and underneath is the bolt/screw that critter is talking about.  Tighten that back up and you should be fine.
