away from the brush. The brush should lightly sweep the sensor cap, but
not brush too hard or miss the cap completely.

mechanism and slide the brush up or down as needed. You may also
rotate the brush while it is loose to check the position of the sensor.
Tighten the set screw when you have completed the adjustment.
