Is it a 110 or 220 motor? The starter picture you posted is missing a heater. Gonna need that to run 220 VAC. The silver thing at the bottom. I call them heaters...they are thermal overloads.
Opps. Just noticed I was beat to it.

So, in that diagram, if the thermal overloads (heaters) get hot, they melt the solder inside allowing the little doo-dad inside to spin and trip the OL (overload) contact. You'll notice it is wired in series with the coil. This if your motor protection from over-current. To reset, just push the red bar that says "reset."
