If arm tefillin loosened before putting on head tefillin, must one recite a new blessing before retightening?
Synopsis
The Mechaber distinguishes: if arm tefillin loosened before putting on head tefillin, retighten without a new blessing (the first blessing still covers both). If arm tefillin loosened after head tefillin was already on, retighten and recite a new blessing.
