Good
job.
Related
question; but with the motor speed and tire diameter one could figure it
out. Does anyone know where there is a list of
nominal
speeds for each gear, and motor speeds for each of the forward positions for E12
and E15? There is overlap of
course, but I
would like the real numbers. The only ones I have ever seen was
'top-speed' (D2) and assuming it is max motor
speed.
With these ratios, I can now tell what max speed in each gear is, but I still
haven't a clue as to motor speed at each
throttle
position. I don't really want to go to the trouble of a fancy tachometer,
and there should be a chart somewhere.

drive ratios are in a large frame tractor?
I jacked up the back wheels and had the wife turn
both of them at the same time and exactly one revolution, while I counted the
revolutions of the motor pulley on a C-185.
The numbers I came up with are as
follows:
LL - 266:1
L
- 90:1
D1 - 50:1
D2 - 34:1
Now if those numbers are anywhere near right, what
would you suggest as the optimum single drive ratio if a guy wanted to make an
Elec-Trak ZTR. I figured on using (2) E14 or maybe E15 drive motors
hooked to each drive wheel via right angle worm gear speed
reducers?
Anybody got any thoughts?
