POWER TAKE OFF OPERATION – IF EQUIPPED
The 3500 Dodge Chassis Cab vehicle, when equipped
with either the automatic 6 speed or manual G-56 6 speed
transmissions, will allow for an aftermarket upfit with a
transmission driven PTO (power take off). The customer
will have the ability to operate the PTO in either a
“stationary” or “mobile” mode. The vehicles will be
factory set to the “stationary” mode. In order to select the
“mobile” mode a DaimlerChrysler Dealership is required
to modify the vehicles settings using their proprietary
Dealer service tool.
Stationary Mode
To operate the PTO in this mode the vehicle must meet
the following conditions:
•

matic transmission)
•
Upfitter provider (on/off) switch has been activated
•
Parking brake applied (vehicles equipped with
manual transmission)
•
Vehicle must be running
•
No vehicle, brake or clutch switch faults present
•
PTO must be correctly installed using the vehicle
provided circuits
The customer has the choice to operate the PTO by
utilizing the cruise control switches or by utilizing a
remote control (provided by the PTO supplier). To oper-
ate the feature using the cruise control switches the
customer must first activate the up fitter provided on/off
switch. Next, the cruise control “on” switch is selected.
Following this step the “set” switch must be depressed.
