If draft isgiven, and it is required to find the draft gear that wouldproduce this draft, divide… … 64 it would be necessary to use a gear of 41 teeth. Usinggear 41, the exact draft would be 246.4^-41=6.01.Using a gear of 42. the draft would be 246.4-=-42=5.87 The gearing plan shown in Fig. 14, where some of thegears are at one end of rolls, and some at the other, is notuniversally adopted.
