Lima Motor Rotation how to change

Uh, how about get rid of that capacitor and install a VFD? It is a 3 ph motor and should not need the capacitor if run on 4 ph power.
 
Uh No its fixed. To all who posted and offered your expertise I Thank You all. The problem was solved this morning. The wires going to the black Micro-start in the peckerhead were switched, there are 3 wires going to the switch 2 are going to the motor and 1 is going to the capacitor so I switched the wires around that go to the motor only,result Clockwise rotation.
I did have to check each wire which I labeled, and even the wires to the cap were disconnected and checked for continuity to be sure the wires were correct and then labeled.
This was a great exercise in electrical wiring and schematics which I didn't have an idea about, again Thanks to all the folks on this forum.
