Default Nuisance fastners - winge

FWIW..
A motor with 2 identical windings in series, is a PSC permanent split
capacitor motor.

Electrically, in a PSC motor the windings are the same as a center-tapped
transformer, having 3 leads.

PSC motors can be run in either direction, and that's one of their unique
features, a single-phase AC motor that can be instantly reversed (which
single-phase AC motors generally can't do, without allowing them to stop
before reversing).

It's not shaded pole. It has two sets of windings perpendicular to each
other, and a capacitor which I believe is in series with one set of
windings.
