Jerry,
Yes the carrier is flipped in the Cub Cadet from what it is in the Farmall/International Cub. As you sit in the drivers seat, the Cub engine turns CCW and the engine in a cub Cadet turns CW. The PTO turns CCW on both the Cub and Cub Cadet because of the gear reduction/direction change on the front of the Cub Cadet transmission.
The PTO on the Cub turns at engine speed (1600 to 2000 RPM max, depending on the year of the tractor), the PTO on the Cub Cadet turns 514.2857 RPM at 3600 engine RPM due to the 7 to 1 reduction at the front of the transmision. The total reduction on an Original (between the different diameters of the clutch and drive pulleys and the gear reduction in front of the transmission) is about the same 7 to 1.
