Such modification is accomplished merely by opening blister switch 272. With the blister switch open only buttons 174 and 176 are used. Opening switch 272 does not affect the operation of the apparatus in response to the actuation of button 174, so that, when button 174 is depressed electromagnets 80 and are operated and electromagnet 74 remains deenergized. Operation of the apparatus in response to the actuation of button 176, however, is changed since the energizing circuit for electromagnet 85 is open at the switch 272.
  • Depression of button 176 therefore, results in the operation of only one of the clectromagnets, that is the electromagnet 74 and the other electromagnets 80 and 85 remain deenergized.
