PTO management
4.6.2.2 Automatic transmission
The Power Take Off of versions with automated gearbox (6AS400) is specific because the control system must recognise the
status of the Power Take Off for safety reasons.
PTO engagement
The purpose of this operation is to prepare the equipment installed on the vehicle for work.
When carrying out the operating sequence, the driver is assisted in order to avoid errors.
a) If the equipment is of the type working with vehicle stopped (stationary PTO) :
- stop the vehicle and apply the hand brake;
- put the transmission into neutral;
- press and release button (1) on the PTO control panel (Figure 4.6, page 4-11).
The PTO engagement indicator (2) blinks slowly at first and stays on fixed when the operation is successfully concluded.
b) If the equipment is the type that works also when the vehicle is running (non-stationary PTO) it will moreover be necessary
to engage the right gear for the work (first, reverse or possibly neutral).
In both situations, with the gearbox in neutral and PTO correctly engaged, the ECU closes the clutch when 1100 rpm is reached.
Also, pickup is possible in first or reverse gear: in this case the gearbox control unit is arranged for closing the clutch at approx.
900 rpm.
To adjust the engine speed, see paragraph 4.6.2.3.
PTO disengagement
Irrespective of the type of PTO installed:
- stop the equipment;
- press the pushbutton (1): the indicator (2) goes off when the PTO is disengaged.
For safety reasons, when the non-stationary PTO is engaged:
- gear changes (involving automatic disengagement)
- the vehicle should not be driven over 15 km/h.
!
The PTO must be disengaged when torque drawing is not in progress.
If an after market PTO is to be installed, check to ensure that the vehicle is equipped with the Cruise
Control option. NOTE
After fitting an after-market PTO refer to the IVECO Assistance Service for updating the engine ECU
software via remote service. NOTE
