Turned the front coupling 10 revolution-back coupling turned 4 plus 295 degree revolution (presume this is ahead- both coupling go same direction)
Turn front 10 revolution and back coupling does 4 revolutions plus 235 degrees. What is the gear ratio please (its a Droffin gearbox)

10 revolutions in = 3600°
4 revolutions +295° out = 1735°
Ratio = 3600/1735 = 2.075.

10 revolutions in = 3600°
4 revolutions + 235° = 1675°
Ration = 3600/1675 = 2.15.

I think:)
