TRUCK CAB CONTROLS
Power Take-Off (PTO)
Manual Shift Control – The PTOs are engaged when the
knobs on dash or floor are pulled out and disengaged when
the knobs are pushed in. The truck gear shift lever must be in
neutral and the clutch depressed whenever the knobs are
moved.
Air Shift Control – The PTO is engaged when the switch is
moved to apply air to PTO and disengaged when switch is in
off position. The truck gear shift lever must be in neutral and
clutch depressed when switch is moved. The transmission
selector lever must be returned to “N” for stationary vehicle
operation. The power takeoff may be disengaged while in
any transmission range provided that the load has first been
removed from the PTO.
Electric Shift Control – Full torque electric shift PTOs are
controlled by a switch. To operate, disengage the clutch, shift
to fourth or fifth gear, and operate the switch down to engage
the PTO or up to disengage the PTO. Return the gear shift to
neutral and engage the clutch.
