Operator can select from three different engagement rates for both front and rear PTO: AUTO, Low, and High.

AUTO: Used for most implements, and is the factory setting in CommandCenter™. This setting provides software logic to determine engagement rate for PTO clutch, based on PTO speed sensor feedback. If PTO does not turn fast enough during initial PTO clutch engagement, engagement rate is automatically increased to avoid clutch slip and PTO shutdown.

Low: Can be used where gradual PTO startup is required, or if Auto engagement is too aggressive or inconsistent.

High: Can be used for applications where PTO clutch engagement needs to be aggressive.

IMPORTANT: If operator is experiencing problems with PTO clutch engagement in Auto setting, change PTO engagement setting in CommandCenter™ from Auto to High Rate to prevent power train damage.
