Note: These values are for the shaft only. Drive/Driven

value between the

Seed Rate Motor and Planter

Drive Sprocket must still be determined.

If determining shaft ratios for any shaft not listed in the table above, rotate input shaft (driver) 10 times. Count how many

times the output (driven) shaft turns. Divide number of turns of the input shaft by the number of turns of the output shaft.

input shaft revolutions
output shaft revolutions

Divide number of turns of the input shaft by the number of turns of the output shaft.
