Red River Valley and Devils Lake Basin | The auger in the picture fills a dryer and as far as I can tell it currently turns the auger about 400rpm. To me this seems like it should be turning closer to 200rpm. It’s a 10 inch auger so it might even be able to spin slower than 200 and still keep up, but 200rpm is what I figured was practical.
Anyways, I haven’t been able to find pulleys that would go from 1750 to 200 without a jack shaft. So I am just looking for peoples ideas on how they would go about doing this, and if you would add a jack shaft any ideas on fabricating it would be helpful.
Motor shaft is 1 3/8 and the auger shaft is 1 1/4. We also don’t have 3 phase available at this location.

How would you go about getting this auger to turn slower?
