Tele switch terminals wrong way around?

I'm a tad confused. I bought a Tele switch but the terminals are different to usual, it's like a mirror image? Presumably one wires it like a mirror image of what one had before?

Sounds like a Japanese one. 

Compared to an American-made CTS switch, the terminals for each pole will be in the correct sequence but on the wrong sides.

Use a resistance meter to confirm continuity between the various contacts.

Just look closely at the switch, you can see which is the rotor and which are the contact terminals - unless it's an enclosed box type.
