In this previous Q&A answer, officials ruled that the metal lever arm on the Limit Switch could be bent to improve the versatility of how the Limit Switch is used:

I would like to know if the students may bend the lever in such a way that another object (such as a piece of bar or plastic) could touch the actual switch part, so that perhaps more than just the in-built lever could actually trigger the switch.

I think everyone knows that the in-built levers are fragile and prone to snapping off during game play.

Thanks.

Yes, this is legal, provided no other rules are violated in the process.
