Topology of the Yoccoz puzzles at depth-$n$

This paper "Local connectivity of Julia sets and bifuraction loci: three theorems of J.C.Yoccoz" (see http://pi.math.cornell.edu/~hubbard/Yoccoz.pdf) tells that it is quite easy to construct the topology of a puzzle to a given depth by hand (see Remark 5.3). I wonder that for the \frac{1}{3}-limb, we know that there are three external rays landing at the repelling fixed points $\alpha$, then it is easy to know the knowledge at depth-$0$, and the topology of depth-$1$ can be got by mapping each puzzle at depth-$0$ under $f^{-1}$. Now I am a little confused that how do we know the position of the preimage of $\alpha$, i.e. how do we know which piece does $f^{-1}(\alpha)$ belong to? Furthermore, how do we know that the topology of a puzzle at depth-$2$, or depth-$n$? Are there any more details can I get from here?
