Both Driveline throughput (vehicle in motion) and PTO Aux. Applications cannotbe engaged (operated) at the same time. Either the vehicle shall run on theroad (Driveline) or in a stationary position the PTO Auxiliary Outputs can beengaged.

If Both Driveline and PTO Aux.applications are required (to be operated) simultaneously, kindly refer to our Combination Reduction models CR4, CR7 & CR8series gearboxes which have both driveline & PTO Aux. simultaneous optionswith Reduction Driveline feature.
