1-2 of my stanchions are a bit loose.   Has anyone got the procedure / tools needed to tighten them up?    Its not intuitive looking at it.

Not sure if you have had a base out before but this is what they look like on our 575. If the base is loose you may be able to screw the base in tighter. It may help to tighten the securing bolt. If the stanchion tube is bent out of shape and wobbly then there is not much you can do apart from replace the stanchion.
