Kitchen Tap Loose?

[Foresty Forest]

The whole body of the kitchen tap is loose. I've felt underneath and there doesn't seem to be a locking nut? What do I need to do to tighten it back up? Photograph of the tap and one from underneath.

Thanks

Can you lift the whole tap out? There should be a nut, but can’t see it because it should be the other side of your flexi hoses.

I had another feel (can't get my head in) and there is a screw thread with a small nut. Better photo below. is this it? Doesn't seem big enough?

There will be a nut ,move the flexis over a bit.

Yep, that’s the one. It might just want tightening up, a monobloc spanner should sort you out, they’re about £5.

So just a matter of tightening it a bit then?

I was starting to think the tap was somehow screwed into the sink....

Edited other reply, yes, should just want tightening up, a monobloc spanner should sort you out, they’re about £5.

Can I buy a set of those - I'm guessing that the nut is about 1cm across? But I'm probably out.

Just seen they’re not available for national delivery, try this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3PC-MONO...98430041750aaee9df0416cfdb3caf1&ul_noapp=true

Looks very tight for abox spanner to get on that nut
