My set up is similar for rotation, works slick and has served me well for over 5 years now.
Another mod I made was to fabricate plastic chute guides to replace the metal ones that were factory installed as the metal ones created too much friction.
I also made a large plastic washer for the chute to sit on as metal sliding on metal is not exactly as smooth as I wanted.
I simply now add a few squirts of oil from time to time and my chute never freezes up.
To make your reverser switch yo need a spring loaded, center off DPDT switch.
You solder 2 opposite corners with a lead going to the motor and the other 2 corners also going to the motor.
The 2 center leads (lugs) are your power in.
Any good toggle switch rated at 10 amps or more will do just fine. Use 16 gauge wire and I fused with 15 amp fuse.
