Gear Ratio
« on: July 15, 2006, 10:01:21 am »
From the input shaft to the axle in the highest gear is a 13 to 1 gear ratio.  I was wondering what size puleys to run fron the motor to the transaxle to get close to a 9 to 1 gear ratio

Use the IMOW Pulley set up found above. The one pulley is adjustable allowing you to dial in the 9:1 ratio with a fair degree of accuracy.

Well we used a 5 on the motor and a 4 1/2 adjustable on the transaxle and got it dead on.Mike Cupps can get you the pulleys.And pretty much anything else you might need your mower
