    Torque calculation

    Torque=Force X radius of the Gear For example, You apply 2400 ft-lb of torque Force = 2400 ft-lb X 12"/5"= 5760 lb You need 12000 lb-ft The first Gear is 5" in radius the second Gear you need 8" The third Gear you need 15.625" Or you can increase the torque from 19.2 ft-lb to 96 ft-lb
