The effect is the pressure on the actuator caused by the spring in the switch I am guessing. The manufacturer states that this is only 2 psi. If you want your switch to operate reliably, I would not recommend any adjustment in addition to my previous statements.
Thanks to Mark for this in depth research.
Thank you for your response, I am gonna throw away that modified sensor, I have no idea if its set right anymore. Its not worth the risk.
