After failing once again to find info on the company's website, I sent an email to the department such requests are directed to in the FAQ's. It's after business hours, so I won't hear from them until tomorrow at the soonest.
Good tip about the wiring diagram.

And the "mess of wires" is just power transmission. There are copper connectors where you hardwire a power cord.
Tried getting shots following the wires inside...

If I can't get it operational on my own (well, with the help of the community here :D ), and in a non-life threatening way, I'll take it to work with me one week. The maintenance crew at the plant has to deal with small motors similar to this one all the time. They may not be the last stop, but they are my first stop in professional "fixin stuff" advice. My wacky ideas entertain them, so they don't mind giving me a few minutes of their time :rofl2:
