As I recall, there are three screws which hold it in place. To reach these, you need to unscrew and remove the front trim ring (there are two slots which provide you a place to grip, etc). If this idea is not familiar to you, please prowl around the excellent articles on this site. When that ring is removed, you'll see the three screws. You'll need to tighten them. Good luck.
