The way that the outer works base and defense pieces interact it isn't physically possible to install them oriented incorrectly. The defenses are on casters that roll down ramps in the outer works base to seat them in place. The casters are in a trapezoidal pattern on the bottom of the defense. Because the spacing of the casters differs front to back it provides orientation in conjunction with the position of the ramps and slots for the casters in the outer works base.
