Two mounting examples are illustrated:
1. Using one cable tie (ribbed side toward magnets), secure
two magnets to the wheel hub so they are exactly
opposite each other. Alternate the magnets’ polarities.
when the wheels are turned. If the “L” bracket provided
cannot be bent and mounted to properly position the
sensor, make a bracket similar to the one shown at right.
