Default 4800 watt construction heater wiring

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm currently trying to add
an oulet for 4800 watt construction heater in my shop. I've run 10/3
wire to the outlet, added a 2-pole 30amp breaker to the sub-panel, and
installed a 6-30 plug by connecting the black and red wires to the
blades on the plug...


I get 120v on each side of the plug with my voltmeter.


Do you get 240V between the hots on the plug?
