152 STARTING AND OPERATING
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 en-
gage 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 he 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.
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 rambodybuilder.com
