Q. Please can you confirm the motor direction can be reversed.
A. Hi Marc. Thank you for your question. Switch the polarity and the motor can be reversed.


23 February 2013 Question by: Rapid Customer | Product code: 37-1085
Q. how do you change the gear ratio?
A. Hi Jaiseo. Thank you for your question. The gear ratio is fixed. However the speed can be altered within a certain range by varying the voltage input. The motors are available with different ratios but this cannot be changed. Select a motor with the closest ratio to the speed you require then regulate the voltage to fine tune exactly.
