Can anyone out there tell me if the following motor requires a capacitor :

Reliance Electric I.D. # E77X7112M-PN If it does need a capacitor, which P/N should I ask for ?

It's 120 volt used to drive a gearbox. It has 3 wires coming out of it, labeled T1, T2, T3. I'd like to get it working, but searching on the internet
didn't do me any good at all.

Thanks to all, for taking time to help me !!!!!!!

I'm guessing "Type: CS" translates to Capacitor Start, but beyond that I've also come up empty searching for any info. Guess we will need to wait for the motor experts.

If you have an ohmmeter, it might be helpful for you to measure the resistance between T1-T2, T1-T3, and T2-T3.
