Another wiring question

I just picked up this buffer and am a little confused on how to wire it for power. As you can see the power line is cut as is the foot pedal but that's easy to reconnect. The shop I bought it from was too busy moving and the guy who knew about it was let go in the move so all I have is "it works."

Motor is 3 phase, 3 hp 208-230.

The junction box has the deadman pedal and wire going out to plug it in. The deadman pedal has 3 heavy gauge wires but the green is just clipped inside the box. The plug wire is just 2 wires. that doesn't make sense to me except the black label just above the connectors says 120V. They think it was cut because it was just wired into the breaker box.

Any ideas how it should be wired if it isn't properly? It was used a lot.
