Dirtbag trimpot orientation

[Axe_34]

Hey guys.

I'm a little confused about the trimpots.

Here we have one marked with a 3 on the left and a one on the right.



On the trimpot, it says 3>>>>>>>>>>>1



But when you look at it upside down, the leads are the opposite. Can I just put it in the way the leads are oriented on the trimmer or do I have to bend the leads to make sure they match the numbers on the board?



Thanks in advance for your help.

Trimpots are non directional. Pins 1 and 3 don't matter really. Put it in so it fits, you'll be good to go.
