At what speed does the Type 3 PTO disengage?

The Type 3 Power Take-Off (PTO) system typically disengages at a speed of 18 MPH. This disengagement speed is crucial because it allows the vehicle to operate safely while also ensuring that the attached equipment, which could include pumps or generators, does not operate when the vehicle exceeds this speed. Maintaining a proper speed limit for engagement and disengagement of the PTO helps prevent mechanical failure and promotes safe operation. Understanding this speed is vital for personnel operating Type 3 vehicles as it helps ensure they adhere to safety protocols and operational guidelines.
