Why is friction called self adjusting force?

FIRST OF UNDERSTAND WHAT IS FRICTION. FRICTION IS NOTHING BUT A FORCE THAT OPPOSES THE MOTION OF A BODY .THE ANSWER FOR THIS Qn. CAN BE EXPLAINED BY A SIMPLE EXPERIMENT!!!. CONSIDER A RECTANGULAR BODY THAT SITUATED ON ONE SIDE OF A SEESAW, NOW RISE THE OTHER SIDE OF SEESAW; YOU CAN SEE THAT THE BODY WILL MOVES ONLY AFTER A PARTICULAR HEIGHT REACHED. THIS IS DUE TO THE SELF ADJUSTING PROPERTY OF FRICTION!! .THAT IS WHEN YOU RISE THE SEESAW THE GRAVITATIONAL FORCE & MASS OF BODY CAUSE THE BODY TO TEND MOVE TOWARDS DOWN. AS YOU RISE MORE THE FORCE WILL INCREASES ALSO. BUT THE FRICTIONAL FORCE ALSO INCREASES WITH RESPECT TO THE DOWN WARDED FORCE.THAT IS THE FRICTIONAL FORCE SELF ADJUSTING!!!!. BEYOND THE FRICTIONAL LIMIT BODY BREAK FRICTION AND MOVE TO DOWN..
