Re: Crab Drive Problems

It is also possible to drive a pot through a reduction link to allow you to use the pot's less than full rotation for what ever amount of rotation you wish. If you need to have continuous rotation then this is not for you. However, you may find that a little over 360 degrees will fit right in and a simple 2:1 reduction would use far less than the 270 degrees most pots allow. Please remember to center the pot when the wheel alignment is in the center of it's rotation.
