Brass fitting - correct direction ? (PTFE Fitting)

Hi; Trying to solve a jam problem, I removed the brass fitting to check for blockages, but didn't notice what direction it should go back in 🙂

The fitting has a perfectly FLAT side and on the opposite side a small CIRCULAR raised/edge.

Which side goes *into* the fitting hole? (I just don't want to take any chance of stripping the plastic threads).

 

Best Answer by Malcolm:

The side with the thicker threads goes into the plastic. The popped out side

This is my first printer, I had to learn too and had the same question at the start.
