540/540E Operation

For standard 540 PTO operation (load requiring full engine power), pull lever (A) up to 540 position.

For economical PTO operation (lighter load), push lever down for 540E position. In economical mode, engine is run at lower rpm to conserve fuel and reduce overall operating noise while still turning PTO shaft at 540 rpm.

NOTE: With PTO shift lever in 540E position, engine fast idle speed is limited to 1700 rpm.
