This photos shows how it is wired. I attached a pigtail with a male plug end coming from the motor, then switched a waterproof receptacle box. The motor isn't wired directly to the switch because I wanted to be able to remove it from the frame for cleaning and storage.
This second photo shows the inside of the plucker.
Finally, this photo shows the motor and gear reducer. I got the gear reducer from a coworker. It has a 16:1 reduction ratio so I went with a 3450 rpm motor. The two are coupled together with a Schmidt coupling.
If you want to see one of these plucker in action, here's a video link.
