A pin mounted on the interior of the cover is receivable within one of three holes on an annular base plate that limit the rotation of the actuating shaft. An annular base plate with a through opening includes a perpendicularly disposed tubular member that has an inwardly extending flange that together with an annular plug and a retainer ring keep in place a spring member biasing the cover towards the annular base plate assembly.
