PTO's

On the old F10 and F12 at VdB we controlled the PTO for the silo compressors and tank compressors from the outside.
Had 3 buttons on the outside 1 for the clutch, 1 to engage the PTO, 1 to operate the accelerator.
You got very handy with them, flick the clutch, wait 30 seconds, flick the PTO and release the clutch slowly, when engaged flick the accelerator who would bring the revs up to 1000 revs.
When somebody was smart in the morning the would flick the clutch switch and you would wake up with you clutch pedal pressed to the floor. :grimacing: :grimacing: :grimacing:
Or they operated the accelerator and you would wake the whole parking up because the engine would start at 1000revs. :blush: :blush:

PTO’s are like Marmite, you love them or hate them :unamused: :unamused:
