Papst motor rotation

I'm slowly working on a DIY TT project. I'm starting with a Rek-O-Kut Rondine L-34. I'm planning on building a DIY CLD plinth, and DIY WTL clone tonearm to go with it. The L-34 comes with an induction motor. I wanted to upgrade, so bought a Papst synchronous motor on ebay, salvaged from a Rek-O-Kut N-33H belt drive.

I know I'm going to have to have some capstan work done, in order to use this motor, but I also need to reverse the rotation for idler wheel drive. I know that some of the idler wheel drive ROKs used the Pabst motor, so pretty sure by changing the way the leads are wired, I can change rotation. Can anyone tell me how to do this, or point me to a website that might have that info? I have tried to google for an answer, but have come up with nada.
