Tim, Check the wires out carefully for numbers printed on them. All the 3
phase motors that I have use the same numbering scheme;



If you measure low ohms between 7-8-9 this is good. This is the first
winding, permanently connected in a wye.

Join 4-5-6 this is the center of the second wye.

Connect your 3 phase line to the pairs; 1-7, 2-8, 3-9



Good luck.
