The threads on the knob or the metal piece it screws onto are stripped. You need new parts.

Remove the face plate. There is a hole on the right side of the metal body of the machine. There is a screw inside which holds the tensioner in place.

(Look inside with a small flashlight to see if you can see a screw. It might be in there, just not tightened enough.) Good luck.
