OPERATION
Operating The PTO (HDPTO)
See the attachment Owner’s Manual for the correct operating
procedure for your attachment.
Install the attachment on the utility vehicle. See pages 49.
Engaging PTO:
1. Start the engine. See
page 41.
2. Reduce the engine
speed.
Tip: Do not engage the PTO
system at higher engine
rpm with the attachment
under load. Always
engage the PTO system
at a lower engine rpm
and with the attachment
under a no load condi-
tion.
3. On the PTO switch,
press the center button
(Item 1) and then pull
up on the knob (Item
2) to engage the PTO.
4. The light (Item 3) in
the dash will illumi-
nate and the PTO shaft
will start rotating. The
PTO shaft RPM will be displayed in the dash (Item 4).
5. Increase the engine speed to the desired rpm specified for
your attachment. See the attachment Owner’s Manual for
the correct attachment operating RPM. (With engine RPM
at 3600, the PTO shaft will rotate at approximately 2000
RPM. Adjust engine RPM to meet the attachment RPM
requirement.)
Tip: The maximum PTO speed for various attachments may vary.
See the attachment Owner’s Manual for the maximum speed
recommended for your attachment.
Tip: When driving over objects (example: a curb), always drive at a
slight angle and at slow speed to allow one wheel at a time to go
over the object. This will allow maximum ground clearance for
the utility vehicle and avoid PTO shaft damage.
Tip: Do not engage the PTO system at higher engine rpm with the
attachment under load. Always engage the PTO system at a
lower engine rpm and with the attachment under a no load condi-
tion.
WARNING!
Avoid Injury Or Death
• Keep PTO shield and all guards
in place.
• Keep away from moving parts.
• Keep bystanders away.
• Do NOT exceed 2000 PTO RPM
