Not sure if somebody mentioned it already, but have you played with 
other buffers than the recommended  sodium phosphate from the manual ?

Most lazy people use Tris because there's a 1 M stock solution - but you 
can try also other buffers as long as you stay in a pH range >pH6 <pH10.
Of course you still need imidazole for the elution but the buffer might 
bring some surprises, one of them can be a better initial purity after 
the first capture step, another one might stabilize your protein.
