so you don't have to rewind the run and start windings every time you want the fan to run the other way ... The net purpose of changing the rotation is to circulate the air in the opposite direction. If the fan spins in Direction "A" the air is drawn from below and up toward the ceiling When you reverse it to Direction "B" the air is drawn from the ceiling toward the floor.
