A quick trimpot lead question

Hey there, this is corresponding to the attached schematic (also see here: **broken link removed**)

For the 10K trimpot, I have one somewhat similar to this one here: **broken link removed** The leads are arranged in a triangle shape like in the picture. Which lead on the actual trimpot will correspond to which wire on the schematic symbol? Thanks.

The single lead on one side likely corresponds to the lead with the arrow on the schematic (the movable wiper lead). You can check this with an ohmmeter. The wiper resistance to either of the other leads will change when you adjust the trimpot.
