LOOSE FIXTURE Thehome I'm renting has a Grohe 33-755 High Profile kitchen faucet (installed in akitchen redo 5 months ago) The entire unit has become very loose and wobbly. I'm afraid that what ever keeps the unit snuggly in place has comeundone. Thesink is very deep and I have limited access underneath the unit, but to thebest of my knowledge, there is no fastening nut beneath the unit. I was toldthat there may be a special tool provided by Grohe that tightens the unit fromthe top. Is thistrue? How can I tighten? My land lord is of no help!
Unfortunately you cannot tighten the faucet from the top. you will need a 1/2" extended socket (the type for car repairs) and you will need to tighten it from underneath using an extension bar.

There is a set screw at the base i need to see the entire faucet to give specifics is it in bathroom or kitchen need to know if it is supposed to be in fixed position if so there is a set screw at the base
Probably a loose fixture nut under the counter behind the sink.
Yeah ya gotta pull out everything and crawl up into the cabinet on your back and see if the nut (right up at the granite, above the hot and cold inlet pipes) is loose. If it is THEN you'll need to tighten it. Wrench, slip-joint pliers or a basin wrench. (probably basin wrench which is a specialized tool made for reaching up into tight places)
I have the Ladylux plus. I was confused on how to remove this as well. There is a quick release plastic piece, just pull down on the yellow part on the connector under the sink. Disconnect the plastic connector from the hose and pull it right out of the faucet. Very easy to remove in this case.
You'll have to go under the sink and look up were the faucet comes through. You'll see it's held in place by a large nut. This nut needs to be tightened. Unfortunately working in the tight space under the sink is a pain in the ****, just be patient and you should be able to tighten it. TIP: Have someone hold the faucet on top in the position you want it.
you can pull the faucet arm off, the part right on top of the base , if my memory serves me correct you can tighten it with a creset wrench and the neck will pop right back on after
there are mounting plates underneath the counter which fasten the faucet to the counter.This unit will need a small allen wrench if memory serves me correctly...keep in mind that all moen faucets are lifetime guranteed and alot of folks do not take advantage of this amazing warranty which makes these the most desirable faucet on the market.however the need to tighten this faucet prob isnt a warranty replacement procedure but can be determined once mounting items and faucet is inspected...good luck
