I figured as much. I'd much rather use a foot pedal than a knee control. But if this is fixable, I'll put it back and see if having a working knee control pedal works okay for me. My main issues may be with the missing spring and not with it being a knee control. Thanks!
Knee controls are pretty easy to find also. I have two myself that are languishing in a drawer awaiting something I'm sure(hehe). I'm sure there are some on ebay.
