POWER TAKEOFF COMPONENTS
a.
Existing Installation
(1) Unless space limitations prevent, install the PTO
components before the transmission is installed in the
vehicle.
(2) Use the proper shims or gaskets to establish
satisfactory gear backlash(0.006 to 0.012 inch).
CAUTION
Cork or other soft gasket
material cannot be used to
mount the PTO. Use only the
shims or gaskets recommended
by the PTO manufacturer.
(3) Connect the lubrication line (if used).
b.
New Installation
(1) Contact Detroit Diesel Allison Division for
approval of planned installation, or for recommendations.
(2) Speeds, type of duty, power requirements, and
other factors must be considered when adding a PTO to
a transmission.
If the job requirements of the PTO
cannot be fully met by the transmission, the installation
will not be satisfactory.
Also, the transmission could be
damaged.
(3) Follow all of the recommendations in a, above.
(4) If a lubrication source is required, the return line
from cooler-to-transmission may be tapped.
Provide a
0.032 inch restriction in the lubrication circuit (usually
already provided in PTO assembly).
