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:
• Be in “park” position (vehicles equipped with auto-
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.
The vehicle is now in the PTO mode and is ready for use.
In order to increase or decrease the engine idle speed, to
optimize the PTO function, the “accel” and “decel” cruise
switches can be used respectively. To disengage PTO296 STARTING AND OPERATING

operation and return to “standard vehicle operation”
simply turn the up fitter provided on/off switch to the off
position.
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 manufacturer to ensure that their electrical (switches
and remote) system is compatible with the vehicle’s
electrical architecture and software functionality.
Mobile Mode
To operate the PTO in this mode the vehicle must meet
the following conditions: • Dealer selected “mobile” mode activated via Dealer
proprietary service tool
• Upfitter provider (on/off) switch has been activated
• Vehicle must be in “park” or “drive” position (vehicles
equipped with automatic transmission)
• Parking brake must not be applied
• No vehicle, brake or clutch switch faults present
• Vehicle must be running
• PTO must be correctly installed using the vehicle
provided circuits
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 up fitter provided PTO
on/off switch. At this point the customer may place the
vehicle in a forward or reverse gear and have PTO STARTING AND OPERATING 297
