look in the very center of the handle at the orange colored plastic band about 1 or 2 in. wide, grab the end with the tines with your right hand, hold the other with your left, twist your right hand back toward your chest. this should unlock it, and of course twist the opposite way to lock it in place. (look very close at the orange band in good lighting, and you can see small arrows pointing to lock and unlock). good luck.

Just give it a twist and it tightens. I've had mine for a couple of years and it works great.

I had to use channel locks to open and then adjust the part in the middle, just play with it a while, till it will adjust

The handles should just lock or snap together. You have to make sure the ends of the middle section (between the hand end and the machine end) are oriented in the right direction. Hope this helps... otherwise, you should be able to find a customer service number for them in the manual or on their website. Best of lock.

detach the handle and tighten the screw underneath, that might eliminate some wobble

I had the same problem, I used a piece of the packaging foam that came with it, lined the outside of the rod and slid the handle on it, the friction keeps it in place just fine.

try "jiggling" the bottom metal piece while you're tightening it. also, hand-tightening is not enough...you should be using a wrench or ratchet

It has been awhile, but if I remember right I went to ace hardware and got a longer screw that went through the square tube & into the other side of the handle by a 1/2". Then you put the handle on the square tube and drill through the tube and handle. Make sure you stop at 3/8 to 1/2" on the other side of handle. you just need enough for the screw to start. Also if you go bigger than the excisting hole the screw will strip. If you need something else you can email me at stollerfamily@netscape.com

I had the *exact* same issue. I learned by tapping the unit on the side until the handle jiggles up and down makes it much easier to then simply lift the handle off the top. **UPDATE Fe b 20th** Nevermind, it has now become almost impossible to remove the handle. I now loathe trying to remove the top since it could take anywhere from 3 minutes - 10 minutes... along with a bruised palm of my hand.

Grab handle and strech to one side and unhook the handle clasp. Once 1 side is free the handle comes off. To put on again clip on one side then stretch handle to the opposite side, handle should clip on.

Mine is remaining tight so far but I have not used the shovel very much yet. I did look at how they attached it to the handle and it looks like a "wedge" type of system with two screws. It looks like they attached the wedge on the handle at the factory and then slide the plastic shovel down onto it. If mine does loosen up I will drill a small hole in the topside of the shovel and install a screw into the handle. Good luck with yours, other than the issue you are having, the shovel does work very well and the longer handle is very nice especially if you are tall...

RVG Remove the handle and take it to a Home Depot or equivalent and ask for replacement. Delta guarantee their units for life. I didn't know this and bought a part that did not fit. I took it in, they gave me a new replacement part. Try this. Al

There should be a button on the handle. You have to hold it down continuously.

Get a screwdriver and really get in there, it'll tighten! Just took a lil more than a few twists.

I had to figure this out too. Unscrew the Phillips screw holding the handle on from inside the handle, pull the handle completely off, the reattach the handle in the orientation you need it to be.The manual doesn't reference how to do this anywhere that I could find, but the box has instructions on one of the flaps that I found after the fact.

Pull behind. The handle likes to fall down. I would like it to be locked in place so when you let go of it that it's still in the position I left it.

Unscrew the handle (not all the way) and you will figure it out! JUST ROTATE THE HANDLE A LITTLE BIT AND RE TIGHTEN.

I do not have that model. My handle arm is a solid piece of metal. Yours may have a screw that needs tightening

Mine didn't initially want to go on, but I pressed down on it, hard, and screwed it in place at the same time. Two things, make sure that you tighten it in a clockwise direction looking down on it, and firmly grasp the section just below where you're screwing the end cap on so that you don't accidentally bow or break the handle.I hope that's of some help.
