KPA100 trimmer caps C1 C27

[John Cooper]

I know how they are orientated just not which side is considered the flat side.  I have the light blue body caps that have a large flat side and a smaller tapered flat side.  All the pics I googled had the older style where it was obvious what was the flat side.

  Look at the trimmer corners - the longer end has rounded corners -
thus the rounded end.  The short end has sharp corners which means that
is the flat end.
