I have a larger furnace blower I want to use for an exhaust blower in my shop.
There is no name on it that I can find.
Attached pics show what it says on the tiny tag down inside on the motor itself. Part of the tag is under the clamp holding the motor.
I have 4 wires coming out [plus 2 black that go to the capacitor and return=]
Red White Blue and Black.
Looks like it will run on 110 or 220. I want to run it on 110.
I understand I need a multi-position switch to select different speeds.
I also need a new cord and plug.
I can't see a way from the wiring tag to set it to 110?
To wire the motor to run on 110 which wires go to the standard outlet with a white, a green and a black?
I appreciate any help to get the wiring done without a cloud of smoke and that nasty crispy wire smell
