Possible Causes

Loose handle screws, Worn handle bracket, Cracked plastic around handle mounts

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the basket and pan to cool completely before handling. A loose handle can cause hot food to spill.

Step 1 – Inspect handle

  • Remove the basket and pan.
  • Check the screws or rivets securing the handle to the basket frame.

Step 2 – Tighten hardware

  • If screws are accessible, tighten them with the appropriate screwdriver.
  • Do not overtighten to the point of cracking plastic.

Step 3 – Replace if damaged

  • If the handle bracket or surrounding plastic is cracked, replace the basket assembly with handle.
  • Do not attempt to glue load-bearing handle parts; they may fail under heat and weight.
