Ahh, looks fairly simple.

For 115V, you connect orange and red together and black and blue together.  Between the two browns, you need a 5 uF (microfarad) capacitor rated at 370VAC.

Then you connect your hot/neutral wires to white and the black/blue combo.  As far as which as which, I don't believe it matters, but I'd wait for someone else to respond on that to verify before actually hooking it up and trying it out. :wink:  A/C is A/C though... I don't see it mattering.

It matters. Connect the white from the motor to the white on your supply cord. This is the neutral connection.

Orange and red get tied together and insulated.

Black and whatever that color I can't read get tied together and hooked to the black from your supply cord.

The green on your supply cord goes to the chassis ground. There should be a green screw for it to attach to.

The browns should already be connected to the capacitor. If not, you'll see the wires from the capacitor. It's the 'can' looking thing that is usually attached to the side of the motor. Since it doesn't change whether 115 or 230 volts is used, I'm sure it's already prewired.

I trust this information. However, do you know or could you explain why it matters? I'm merely curious.

Thanks!
