You need to pull the knob off first (make sure don't hit your self in the face when you pull the knob off)then apply the liquid nail glue to the inside the knob near by the bottom ring of the knob and let it dry for 1-2 hours.

lol, i actually read something about "hitting your own face" that here... lol anyway,

i don't have to unscrew anything beforehand? i won't break or damage anything in the process of pulling the knob?
