Thats Odd! My friend has the exact same motor and he turns clockwise to the right if you face the plane. It starts and flys? However my manual confirms your advice with an arrow.

Default well

His is kicking (bouncing back-) on the compression and starting counterclockwise-

Or it may start backwards then change directions...

Look at the propeller blades- that will help
