Maybe:

Red, Blue, Orange to L1
Black, White, Yellow to L2

Reverse motor rotation by swapping Black and Red.

you can look your motor up in this PDF:

Nehog- where do u see blue, orange, and white coming from the motor?

I see brown, green, and red motor leads at the bottom, white and black coming in from the so style cord at the bottom of the box and then black, black(?), and yellow behind the so cord leads....

Here are some diagrams from WEG, you may find what your looking for there.

Marathon's site does not have squat.

I didn't!

I'd hoped that the pictures were of poor enough quality that those wires did exist and I just could not see them in the maze of wires.

I got a lot of hits on Google for these motors, but nothing exact. I'd also suggest dropping Marathon an email and asking if they will provide the information.

I have a burned up Marathon 1hp motor sitting in the basement. I will see if it still has its wiring diagram sticker and get a pic if it does.
