Do you have another machine to compare it to, or a drawing of it? The
metal microswitch lever should not be under the metal tab that goes up
and down. The lever should be activated by a plastic tab that is
molded into the drop target itself. Look at the back of the plastic
drop target itself and you'll see the tab I'm talking about. I've
seen these switches get messed up where the lever falls below the
metal tab, but that is wrong. It could block the target from dropping
all the way in that position.
