One more image to review.

Now it all makes sense. The wire leaving is going to the motor not the power cable. Connect the 240v to the L & N terminal and the ground to the PE. I have not seen a small capacitor mounted like that. Being a 50 cycle motor it will run a little faster on 60 cycle. Roly

That line drawing was not easy to decipher.  The picture is much better for that.

Thank you very much for the help to everyone that posted. This is a pricey fan and that N had me guessing.
