Default Mech Tach Question

I want to check my 72's tach and spin it with the cable using a drill. Which way should I spin the cable. Clockwise...counterclockwise???
Thanks
Eddie

It's clockwise above the equator...

Actually, I don't know. But can't you get a reversible drill and try it both ways?

Thought I might ruin something in the tach if I went the wrong way...
