The Gear Ratio is a setting that appears on the Controller Tab for the Stepper Seed Meter Motor Drive.
It is the ratio of the revolutions of the hydraulic drive as compared to one revolution of the
seed meter.
This setting is used to determine how fast the Stepper Seed Rate Motor should operate to achieve the
proper RPM of the seed meter during planting operations.
To manually enter a Gear Ratio in the Controller Settings window, calculate the Gear Ratio based on
information provided below and on the following pages. The Gear Ratio number is calculated by
multiplying all the gear ratio combinations, from the Seed Rate Drive Motor to the Seed Meter.
Note: Gear Ratio number is the number of revolutions of the motor to turn the seed meter one revolution.

• (A) Seed Rate Motor (Drive) 18 Tooth Sprocket
• (B) Planter Drive Shaft Sprocket (Driven) 29 Tooth Sprocket

needs to be factored for the Total Gear Ratio.
