Chevrolet/GMC DURAMAX Diesel Supplement - 2013 - crc - 8/10/12
Driving and Operating 9-47
Maximum PTO Operating Speed:
During PTO operation, the
accelerator pedal can be pressed to
adjust the engine speed. To protect
the PTO from over-speed, the PTO
system will disengage when the
engine speed exceeds 2100 rpm.
The Stationary PTO Mode provides
both in-cab and remote controls.
The in-cab controls are enabled as
the factory preset. The remote
controls are disabled. This factory
preset configuration can also be
reprogrammed to enable the remote
controls, and disable the in-cab
PTO controls (i.e., PTO switch,
accelerator pedal). See your dealer
for more information.
Variable PTO Mode
In this mode, the vehicle can be
programmed for stationary or mobile
operation.
The variable PTO mode controls
engine speed and PTO load
engagement is selected by either
the PTO in-cab or remote switches.
Engine speed selection is variable
between base engine idle speed
and a maximum of 3100 rpm
(factory setting 2100 rpm).
In the mobile PTO mode, the
vehicle will operate at a vehicle
speed resulting from the current
PTO engine speed request and
current transmission gear range
selected.
Vehicle speed stability is greatly
improved by shifting into the
transmission manual mode because
upshifts are limited. This reduces
the maximum vehicle speed while
allowing high engine speed
operation. Therefore, low vehicle
speed operation at 1640 km/h (10
25 mph) and high PTO engine
speed (1,5002,000 rpm) can be
achieved in the manual mode 1 and
2 transmission ranges.
PTO Switch Operation
The In-cab PTO switch has four
positions:
R, 9 , /SET, and +/RES.
R : This is the PTO switch ON
position.
To engage PTO, press and release
the in-cab switch
R or, press and
release the remote PTO arming
switch; then within five seconds,
assert the remote enable switch to
ON. The vehicle will increase
engine speed to a factory preset
engine speed (850 rpm). This PTO
stand-by speed is not intended to be
an operational PTO speed, but
allows the engagement of the PTO
at lower initial start-up rpm to match
with the engagement of the PTO
load relay.
The initial stand-by speed can be
adjusted by holding the accelerator
to the desired engine speed, then
pressing and releasing the in-cab
PTO switch
R. The current engine
speed will become the new stand-by
speed. This adjustment can only be
done once at the initial engagement
of PTO. The initial stand-by speed
adjustment must be between engine
base idle speed and 1800 rpm
(maximum PTO engage speed).
