The customer may choose to use the PTO while the
vehicle is moving. To do so, the PTO function must be
activated prior to taking the vehicle out of PARK. This is
accomplished by activating the upfitter-provided PTO
on/off switch. At this point, the customer may place the
vehicle in a forward or reverse gear and have PTO
operation. To disengage PTO operation and return to
“standard vehicle operation” simply turn the upfitter-
provided on/off switch to the OFF position.
