Green band saw running in reverse

I was using the green band-saw last night. Noticed blade was running backwards (pulling work piece away from fixture). I rewired the motor (with help from VHS’ers around that night - Thanks guys), the saw is now running in the correct direction and cuts ALOT faster. Could really use a new blade though.

For future reference, there’s an arrow on the saw’s enclosure that shows the blade’s direction of travel.

A what? That sounds dangerously close to documentation… Isn’t that against our bylaws?
