Gaz is spot on.

Normally, it's 'Lucy left to loosen', and, 'rightly tightly to tighten'.

But with my Ionics pole it's the opposite way round.

Get an adjustable spanner and turn the plastic nut an anti-clockwise a turn or two.

It'll tighten up.  Keep the adjustable in your car.  I think the more wear they get, the more you have to adjust them.

How many sections is your pole?
does it do it on all the sections?
how old/how much use has it had?
