Eastwood Buff Motor Wiring HELP

I need some desperate help rewiring my new Buffing motor. Long story short the motor vibrated loose from the base and pulled all the wires off. I tried to hook it back up and the switch burned up and now I have nothing but what is in the picture. I tried to get help at the Eastwood forums but they were no help there. So now I am stuck with a new motor that I can't use. Can someone please help me figure out how to rewire this back up as I have a lot of parts to clean up! I have a Fluke meter I can use to test with.

As you can see in the pic of the wiring, the black and white at the top come off the power cord and go into the on/off switch(burned up but connections still there). There are 2 white and 2 black coming from inside the motor. I only have 4 connections to hook up, 2 on the switch and 2 on the capacitor, but don't want to do any more damage. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The hell with Eastwood's forums what about Eastwood's technical assistance people. You bought it from them why not ask them to help you. Vibrating free from the base sounds like an Eastwood issue to me. LET THEM HELP YOU.
