282 STARTING AND OPERATING
Stationary Mode
To operate the PTO in this mode the vehicle must meet the
following conditions:
• Transmission in PARK position.
• PTO switch has been activated.
• Brake pedal must not be applied.
• Vehicle engine must be running.
• No vehicle, or brake faults present.
• PTO must be correctly installed using the vehicle providedcircuits.
The instrument cluster will display a "PTO On" message for
five seconds if the above conditions are met. Otherwise, the
instrument cluster will display a message "To Operate PTO
Shift To Park" indicating what operator action should be
taken to engage the PTO mode.
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 operate the feature using
the cruise control switches, the customer must first activate
the PTO switch which will turn on the PTO. In order to
increase or decrease the engine idle speed, to optimize the
PTO function, the “RESUME/ACCEL” and “DECEL” cruise switches can be used respectively. To disengage PTO opera
-
tion and return to “standard vehicle operation” simply
toggle the PTO switch to the OFF position.
The torque converter clutch (TCC) will automatically engage
at engine speeds above 1,200 RPM (engine speed) in PTO
stationary mode. Once engaged, the TCC will remain
applied and will not disengage until the engine speed falls
below 1,000 RPM. TCC engagement is desirable for certain
types of PTO applications (Automatic Transmission Only).
To operate the PTO via a remote switch, the customer must
make sure the above conditions are met. It is vital for proper
operation that the PTO and remote have been installed
correctly, paying special attention to ensure the vehicle
provided wiring has been connected properly. This is the
responsibility of the installer of the PTO and switches/
remote system. It is the responsibility of the PTO manufac -
turer to ensure that their electrical (switches and remote)
system is compatible with the vehicle’s electrical architecture
and software functionality.
NOTE:
Single set speed can be programmed via the PTO menu on
the instrument cluster display. Further details are available
at the Ram Truck Bodybuilders web site located at rambody-
