That has always annoyed me. My mom was having trouble with her machine once, so I went over to see if I could help. After the basic, unthread, clean, rethread, it was better but still not good so I started to adjust the tension. She says "Don't do that! A repairman told me never to touch that knob". Then why is it there and how do you expect me to help you with the machine?
