CLK 320 Cabriolet
Cabriolet Roof Lock Down Handle Loose

My 2001 CLK 320 has been a pretty good ride. Last few times I locked down the roof, the handle seems loose and has slid down on its shaft about half an inch. I am worried that it will fail when a nice sunny spring day in Seattle turns to rain and I can't close the top.
Access looks easy with 4 Phillips head screws but the handle has to go before I can access the whole mechanism. How to I get the handle off and tighten it back up?
