Hello, first post/thread from this newbie!!

I've rewired my sander, tablesaw and router table motors from 110 to 220V and without a problem. I just went to my bandsaw and the motor schematic was not that helpful and I also searched the web and no luck. This is a A.O Smith Corporation motor, 2HP type K. Here's the motor wired for 110V (img1685). In order to wire this to 220, do I just move the jumper like this image 1687? IMG-1687.JPG The schematic seems to show this, except that L1 and L2 are reversed in the schematic and the jumper is on L2, but the schematic shows L1 (I didn't put on a picture of that, as the writing is too small to see)?IMG-1685.JPG IMG-1685.JPG

first pic is what I believe is the correct jumper configuration. The other picture (double for some reason) is how the motor was wired for 110V.
