Although not familiar with that particular knob, most of the Accurate's I have worked on have left handed threads. Might check with Kieth (handi2).

They use both Loctite primer and Loctite which makes for a very strong bond. If you have a good size soldering gun, you can apply heat directly to the screw.
I have a D550 Weller and a few minutes with that, and knowing its usually a left hand thread does the trick.

Good luck,  ..  Lou

Tough without seeing it. Can you center punch it and drill it out?

Can you center punch and drill it out. Do you have access to a drill press? If you can drill the head of the screw out, remove the knob and then you'll be able to work on the shaft that's left.

I usually use a fine blade on my very small hack saw and go to town at the base of the bolt or shaft.  Then you are left with a stub or just fill piece in the hole in the handle arm, I then use a quality drill bit and drill out the remainder...

Red loctite does take heat to release - Blue is just a good amount of pressure.

Good Luck!
