[Elecraft] K1 is a bit loose?

The knobs on my K1 have a bit of a loose feel to me.  Also, when I press
the display button (upper left) the display itself shifts just a bit.
Should I disassemble and check the various fasteners to be sure they're
tight or is this just the way the rig is?  No I did not build it.
 
I did take the VFO knob off and snugged down the 10-turn pot's mounting
nut.  It was a bit better after that.
 
And the batter carrier is just loose in there.  When you put the top on
it snugs down but take the top off and the metal bracket is relatively
free to move.  Is this normal?  Again, having not built it and having
not taken the time to check the manual I'm clueless.
