Mobile PTO
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, and 2009 Chevrolet Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The following conditions must be met prior to engaging mobile PTO:
- The engine must be running.
- The vehicle speed must be less than the PTO top vehicle speed limit. The default setting is 80 km/h (50 mph). This limit can be adjusted.
- The shift lever may be in any position.
- The brake must be pressed and then released. The brake must then remain released.
- Cruise control cannot be active.
- Engine speed must be less than the maximum allowed PTO engage speed of 1800 RPM.
- Press and release the 1 position on the PTO switch. The PTO LED will flash fast until the PTO load becomes engaged. When the load becomes engaged, the LED will stop flashing and stay illuminated. The SET - and RES + switch positions can then be used to establish the desired PTO operating speed.
