Daily Maintenance
If the tension control does not easily come out of the machine, you may need
to loosen the screws that hold the side cover on the machine. The cover can
shift with vibration of the machine, and cause binding on the tension control.
You will also need to loosen the 3-hole thread guide above the tension control.
Locate the small screw at the back of the tension control unit. Loosen this set screw, but do not remove.
The collar with the check spring installed will then separate from the shaft with the tension disks (See Photo A below).
