The tone knob fell off! I don't know how to screw it again or placing it correctly? Does anyone know how? It's not broken or anything it just fell off.

carefully pull the rubber grip/band off...the set screw is under that.
Make sure to position the knob up enough for the push/push to work.

How can I remove it? It's really hard, what kind of tool can I use to remove it?

Look inside the knob to see where the screw is and flip the band DOWN in that spot to access the screw. I would not recommend trying to remove or flip it up over the bulbous end of the knob. The grommets are very fragile and tare easily.

Thanks for the help! I finally finished, it was kind of tricky but I got the hang of it real fast.
I used a little tiny screwdriver that came with my watch to lift the rubber strip and reveal the screw. And then I stuck a pair of tweezers in between the knob andthe rubber strip to keep it in place. I didn't have to use the needle pin(thank god).
Then I placed the knob on the pot, I still left the tweezers there and I screwed the knob in place. If I'm not mistaken it's a size 0 cross screw driver. It was a bit of a hassle aligning it with the other knob but I think I did a good job.
And here it is finished, everything looking fine and dandy! Hope this is helpful to anyone having the same problem. Cheers!

This is a big problem. I had all my knobs fall off like they were never even tightened on just set on. I've read this a lot lately. It's a pain and be careful not to rip the rubber piece tightening. I had a few issues that needed to be worked out nothing major though.
