Drum switch wiring 120 volt

Let me study it for a bit.. I shall return
Ahh, no. That is a different drum switch. You have a SquareD 2601:

I'll do a sketch for you- gimme an hour or so

Try this: Swap 5 and 8 if necessary to match motor direction with switch
(don't forget to ground the motor and switch case both)
Edit: remove sketch- different switch

Popping the cover off, I don't think this is an actual 2601.

And this seems to be the crux of my problems, I think someone put one cover on a different switch. Not an unusual problem with buying used, but something to be aware of. The internals appear to be the hockey stick type, as opposed to the chop sticks a 2601 should have.
 
LOL I thought about that possibility- yeah someone must have switched covers or there are two versions of 2601
Edit: remove sketch- no P2 wire present

Edit: remove sketch- wire count question

Does the motor have 6 wires or 7? I only see 6 in the photo but on the motor dataplate it shows 7
The pic of the test hookup in post #9 doesn't make sense to me
