I picked up a cement mixer at an auction ($10!). It's one of those old beauts with a cast bottom, ring and drive gears and it's not stuck. It's got a spoked cast pulley 16" in diameter with about a 3" wide flat rim. Was this to be driven by a belt from a tractor? I don't have much experience with belt-driven devices but the buzz-saws I've seen have 6" or wider pulleys. This more narrow pulley has thrown me off. The drive shaft the pulley is mounted on is 1.25" in diameter and, if possible, I'd like to drive it with the PTO on my H. I'm imagining a drive shaft coming from the PTO with two universal joints to the drive shaft of the mixer. Does this make sense or am I way off? Anyone done this or should I try to stick with belt-driving it? The tag on the mixer says 22 RPM. The pulley drives 8.25 turns per 1 revolution of the drum so I'm looking at 181.5 RPM on the drive shaft. I'm imagining running the PTO at a little above idle.
