Keith I very strongly suspect that it is connected for low voltage. In the morning I'll give you a few thing to check It's late now and I need a clear head to explain to you what to check.
Thanks. I am probably going off to work early tomorrow. give me as much info as you can spare and I will try to digest it when I get back in the afternoon
I was very anxious to get started and I did a quick test run and discovered that there seems to be a problem (I knew this was all to good to be true). I wired it the same way it was wired when I received it. I had doubt that reversing the poles would do much harm on a unit like this. when i hit the stat switch the small motor comes on but only stays on as long as I hold the on button in. The magnetic switch does not move. when i release the on switch the motor slowly spins to a halt. If I push in the on switch in and then use a rubber mallet to push in the magnetic switch then the magnetic switch will stay closed and everything seems to run but I do not appear to be getting power to the outlet.
so far I'm really sad. Was hoping this would all work out nice and simple. I feel like I'm gonna learn a lot of great info. Hope its not an expensive lesson.
