Lead connection diagrams

Single-phase capacitor-start (CW rotation)

L1 ── T1 (main)
L2 ── T4 (main)
Start winding: T5-T8 with start cap + centrifugal switch
Rotation reverse: swap T5 and T8

For CCW rotation, swap the two start-winding leads (T5↔T8), not the line leads.

Field notes

Capacitor-start / capacitor-run above 3 HP for higher starting torque.
115 V is limited to ~2 HP due to line-current draw (>25 A FLA).

The connection charts above are the NEMA MG-1 industry-standard patterns most brands follow. Always confirm the exact chart printed inside your motor's peckerhead lid before landing leads — voltage-code and lead-tag conventions vary between OEMs and production years.
