Paddle Switch for Table Saw

I bought a paddle switch for my General table saw which has a 2 HP Leeson 230 volt single phase motor .It is a Kedu Model HY56. I cannot find a wiring diagram for this switch. No information came with the switch.I can find one for a Grizzly Model H8243 which appears to be identical, with one exception. The wiring diagram for the grizzly switch indicates four terminals but the Kedu switch has six terminals.

I believe that the extra two terminals are for a three phase
motor but I'm not sure. Can anyone verify that the four lower
terminals on the Kedu switch are the same as the four terminals on the Grizzly switch?

Is this the switch you got ? It only shows 4 terminals.

That is the switch, and it has six identical terminals.

Going to need a picture of it as obviously it's different than it should be.
I went right to the Chinese mfg and it's only shown as 4 terminal there too.
No listing of a 6 terminal switch with the same part number.

There should be a load and line side markings on the switch. Pick two on load side and pick two on line side. Use a multimeter to verify contact connection if not marked load and line.
