dust collector wiring help?

I have a Reliant model 720 Dust Collector on which the switch has
died. I opened it up to see if I could fix or replace the switch and
lo and behold some bare wires greeted me along with the wire nut that
tumbled to the floor. However I'm unsure how to reconnect everything
so I'm hoping that someone has a Reliant dust collector and might send
me a scan of the motor schematic or simply e-mail how theirs is wired
up. This is for 110v setup.

The original dealer is out of business (Woodworkers Warehouse).

If it helps the wires from the motor are:

Yellow-Red-Gray-White

From power cord:

Black-Red-Green (normal) ---- Black and Red are on one side of switch,
Green to motor housing.

And still on the other side of the switch:

Yellow-Yellow (this seems strange both same color but it could just
be a factory goof)

Any help please respond to freestatedesign(nospam)@yahoo.com
remove (nospam) from address to send

Thanks in advance for any help.
