The black knob is a clamp that holds the table to the base. Loosing the black knob allows the table to be raised. It's pretty crude and hard to set depth of cut accurately. After the table is set to the level you want, retighten the knob. 'there is no depth adjustment screw.

Correct - screws are short. We bought cabinet screws from lumber yard and clipped them to length with a heavy pair of pliers Please note these screws had blank spaces ( no threads) to clip otherwise you may ruin the screw. Unfortunately going to the lumber yard is an added step - the knobs look sharp for the price.

I cannot answer that question. I do know a lot of knobs and buttons look alike on the surface but are not the same on the back side that makes the connections I would try to find a way to find out through Dorman or another site and see if the part numbers are similar

They are the same size as the screws that came with the phenolic knobs, that you would be replacing. Sometimes when I'm lazy I just remove the (cheap) black knob and use the same screw to attach the S/S knob, very interchangeable. Hate that Le Creuset sell these expensive pots with those foolish black knobs, forcing us to buy the S/S ones!!

I haven't received it yet, just placed my order, but from the enlarged photo you can see a knurled knob below the handle (away from the cutting head) that looks like it'll enable you to move the entire handle and cutting assembly somewhat so that the cutting depth IS adjustable and NOT fixed. Doesn't look like it'll cut too deep, but it is adjustable.

Sorry, I sold the piece on which I used them, but cabinet screws are a standard size (these were standard) so you should be OK. If the screws are too wide, just drill a slightly larger hole. If they are too small, the knob itself will cover the hole on the front, use a washer on the back if needed (unlikely) and make sure the knobs are screwed down nice and snug. Length is more what you have to be concerned about because of the variability of the drawer/cabinet thickness. But that's a problem that can be easily solved by buying longer (or shorter) screws. Most knobs come with longer screws that "snap" off these days. Can't remember what came with these.

Yikes - I do not know. My knobs are in pristine condition. Have you looked up Norpro on the web? One idea I have is to contact Amazon.com and see if they can provide the information, since they also distribute the Norpro product. I wish I could tell you more, may you have good success in searching. Jane

Hi, the height IS 3/8 of an inch. The depth is 5 1/4 to the black plastic part not including the protruding knobbie tail. Hope this helps. What computer are you trying to install this on?

It was hard for me to measure behind the knob and no screwdriver handy, but it looked like exactly 3/4". I would say it is worth a try, if you are not in a time crunch. Amazon is great with returns and these are high quality, beautiful knobs. We have used them on several pieces of furniture and they don't show age at all (light use). We have had them for about 4 years so far.

the knob is indeed to adjust the thickness of the pasta. not sure how it would work with out it.

Stuck Knob Solution here! Hello, I had the same problem and found the perfect solution online (for just $2.99): In order to fix this problem you just need a larger knob which provides the extra leverage needed to (effortlessly) turn the knob. The original knob should come off easily by wiggling and pulling at the same time. The knob is attached to a 1/4'' shaft so any larger knob that fits a 1/4'' shaft will do fine. I used one from radio shack (Model: 274-407), which was 1/4'' shaft and it also contained a micro screw that you can tighten to ensure a snug fit. This knob slightly covers the labels (ALT,VS IAS, etc) but because these values show up on the screen as you tune to them, it's no big deal for me. Btw, I attempted to contact Saitek for a solution and shocker! -No Response.

I am having the same problem! I have adjusted the screw and still no luck. I am at the point of getting rid of it and buying a new one. Very disappointing, especially considering how expensive they are. Wish I could be more help

approx. 1/2". If I were to buy knobs again I would go with something a little more expensive. The screws that came with them were not long enough for my cabinets but I was able to use the existing screws. I think they are cheap looking - and they were.

Unfortunately, I returned the item due to the fact that it only had one adjustment screw. Instead of the two shown in this advertisement. Hope this helps somewhat.........

I think you can loosen the screw that holds the knob and adjust it. I had the same issue. Kind of a goofy design.

It looks like the Kohler site main page for this might be incorrect or is adding some extra for the knob (though over 2" seems wrong even for that). If you look at the Kohler spec sheet: http://www.us.kohler.com/webassets/kpna/catalog/pdf/en/1147372_4.pdf it matches the 18 1/4" depth on the amazon page. I confirmed this on the unit I ordered.

The screws that came with these knobs (BEAUTIFUL and heavy and definitely would buy again) are about 2". I measured the thickness of my cabinet and cut the extra off with a small hack saw. Glad they were this long - my cabinets turned out to be 1" thick.
