I seem to recall I had to adjust the meshing of some bevel gears to get it just
right, but if you line them up just like it shows on page 37 (step 23), it
should work fine.
Also, you were asking about the correction sheet - in fact it's really only a
clarification sheet. On page 53 (step 32), I guess they thought it wasn't
totally clear where the second electric lead should fit on the switch, so they
added an extra picture showing detail from above exactly where it should go.
