Pickup keeps unscrewing.

I have a 2004 Musicman Stingray 4-string. The single pickup model.

For some reason, the pickup keeps rising higher and higher, closer towards the strings. I have to adjust it like once every two weeks and I can't figure out what it is that keeps making the pickup rise.


I think it may have to do with me digging in kind of hard in certain parts of songs, and sometimes i accidentally push the pickup inwards a tiny a bit. Me doing this sparingly over a long period of time might be what is causing the pickup to come loose and get closer to the strings.
