I am at the point of my referb where I need to test my motor. The picture is of the tag, re-written that was located in the wiring box of the motor. All I want to do is wire this to a power chord and plug it in to listen to the motor. I want to wire it at 120 which is the low voltage. I have never wired an electric motor to a power chord, but have done household wiring, so I am capable with some direction. Here is how I read the directions. For the 120 I need to wire nut the brown,green, and red wire together. Next I need to wire nut the white,yellow, and black wire together to one wire of the plug. Lastly I need to wire the Black/red wire to the other plug wire. Does this look correct? And what about a ground for a three prong plug? Am I close or way off?
And if I want to reverse direction it says interchange red wire with black wire. So do I put the yellow, white and red wire together on plug wire and wire nut the brown, green and black together?
