Author foward & reverse switching on dc drive gear motor assy.

Hi, I need some help, I hope I can explain the problem correctly. We
have, ac/dc control box, with a switch for off and on. The gear motor
runs fine this way but will only go in one direction, however if you
switch the motor leads ////////black white the motor will reverse
direction, which is what we want. We bough a foot pedal switch, with
(2) pedals which we want to hook up to switch direction of the motor
at will. The problem is the switches have NO NC C on each switch and
I can't figure out how to make it all work. I need on, off, foward,
reverse. Please advise if this is the right switch or do I need
another with more connections. Thanks for the help, Jim Birdsong
