The Arrow I believe is supposed to face forward. my TV's ion trap magnet also had an arrow on it and mine had to face forward in order for it to function properly. Also banderson's video will be helpful as well.

Ok, sounds good. So it seems mine was installed backwards in this case, as the arrow is pointing towards the base of the tube away from the assembly. Thank you kindly!
