The Power Take-Off (PTO) on a Detroit DD13 engine allows the engine to provide power to auxiliary equipment, either while the vehicle is stationary or in motion. The DD13 offers both rear-engine PTO (REPTO) and front-engine PTO (FEPTO) options:
- Rear-Engine PTO (REPTO): Integrated into the flywheel housing, it receives power through the gear train, operating independently of the transmission.
- Front-Engine PTO (FEPTO): Available for applications requiring front-mounted equipment.
These PTO options enhance the DD13's versatility, making it suitable for various applications such as construction, dump trucks, and refuse vehicles.
