I tightened mine up for a while but it turns out the casting had split where it goes into the lock mechanism. Unscrew it off and have a look-only the centre screw holding it in. Hopefully it'll just be the screw that's loose, but you might need a new handle. I had to stop using mine until I bought a new one.
