To remove the seat adjustment knob on a Schwinn Airdyne AD6, you will need to follow these steps:

Locate the knob on the seat post of the bike.
Using a pair of pliers, grip the knob tightly and turn it counterclockwise to loosen it.
If the knob is stripped and will not turn with pliers, you may need to use a rubber mallet or a small hammer to gently tap it counterclockwise.
If the knob is still not coming off, you can try to use penetrating oil or WD-40 to loosen it up.
Once the knob is loose, remove it from the seat post by pulling it off.
You should now be able to access the seat post and make any necessary adjustments or repairs.

Note: Be careful not to damage the threads of the seat post when removing the knob as it may affect the ability to adjust the seat.

To remove the seat adjustment knob on a Schwinn Airdyne AD6, follow these steps:

Locate the knob on the seat post.
Use a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screw that is holding the knob in place.
Carefully pull the knob off of the seat post.

It's important to note that if the knob is stuck or difficult to remove, you may need to use some penetrating oil or a lubricant to loosen it up first. Also make sure to keep the screw safe.
