2.11.2 Connection and phase sequence
The clockwise rotation of the motor shaft is achieved by connecting in phase
sequence (clockwise rotating field with ascending numerical order of phases
and ascending alphabetical order of terminal designations). The operating
direction of the motor shaft is reversed by swapping round two connection
phases.
