Easy fix -- on the side of the grip is a round plastic plate with the
index marks showing the position of the head. Gently pry this off (it's
glued), and underneath you'll find a disc with a red line on it and a
screw in the middle. Remove this screw and plate (gently -- I don't
recall off hand if it's regular- or reverse-thread). Under it, you'll
find three screws deeply recessed in holes -- tighten them, and you're
grip will be good as new. At least, once you've replaced the disc,
aligned it properly and tightened it's screw, and replaced the plate
with a little silicone adhesive....
