Kitchen Faucet Lever

I have a disc faucet in my kitchen sink. there is leakage for which I want to pull the faucet handle out. I was able to remove the cap on the top of the faucet with a screwdriver, then removed the single screw to free the faucet lever. but I could not pull out the lever.
I have Moen faucet

Its a lever, not separate knobs. It is loose and wiggles. I have to play with it to get the faucet to stop dripping.
I tried an allen wrench. The one that fits in the whole doesn’t turn. It just gets stuck. What should I do?
The handle it not tight, that is the problem. I tried an allen wrench after reading Earl’s answer and it didn’t work. The allen wrench gets stuck and the handle doesn’t tighten. What else should I try? Could I need a new screw?

I think Delta discontinued making this kitchen faucet for whatever reason

same response whether i use the hot or cold lever…

Electric water heater is fairly new and both bathrooms have nice hot water, but kitchen faucet and dishwasher won’t even get hot enough to wash dishes. It’s probably around 100 degrees. Pressure is OK, though not great. It’s a single lever style faucet, installed in April this year when we bought the house.

House is built on a slab with all plumbing running through concrete, but since a bathroom on the same side of the house as the kitchen has good hot water, it probably isn’t the long trip from the heater that’s cooling the water down. (it’s maybe 30′)

thanks for any and all suggestions. I hate to think I need to jackhammer these floors to solve the problem!

i am trying to replace the cartridges in my dual lever kitchen sink to stop a drip. i went to the store with the old ones and got the correct replacements. now i got them in, but they must not be right because i can’t stop the water once i turn the supply back on! they handles move the correct way, but they don’t affect the water flow at all. i’m sure it’s something stupid i didn’t do right – but please help!

I raise the kitchen faucet lever up, but maybe there isn’t enough water pressure to keep it there. It falls slowly and I have to lift it again. Is there some spray or something I can use to increase the friction?
Actually I just found the answer on the faucet website. Donald M had it right. There was a small cap, popped it off and then tightened internal "screw" with phillips head screwdriver and that solved it.

I just purchased and installed a Price Pfister Florentino 2 lever kitchen faucet. When turning off the hot water, the lever rotates beyond the off position and gets out of alignment. I keep having to unscrew the handle, realign it and tighten it back in place. But it quickly get turned around again with normal use. What should I do to fix this permanently??
