OK, I really need to know so that I can plan a bit. I know the rated RPM
for the
mower motors is 3600. Does anyone know any or all of the following?
The rated or typical input (KW) and/or output power (in KW or HP) for the
mower motors?
The rated or typical input (KW) and/or output power (in KW or HP) for the
snow blower motor?
The rated or typical input (KW) and/or output power (in KW or HP) for the
tiller motor?
I mean continuous power, not short cycle, but that would do if I have to.
I WOULD mount an electric motor, or even two by belt drive IF I can get
the pully
ratio right. To do that, I need RPM and power. Since I doubt I will get
an actual
output power, I can estimate based on input power, but I don't even have
that.
