Clearance gap between magnets and switch assembly must be between 1/4 inch [6 mm]
and 1 inch [25 mm]. With wheels pointed straight ahead, rotate wheel to ensure
gap is correct. Make sure vehicle wheels can be turned to their extremes in each
direction without the magnets hitting the switch assembly.
