The Chelsea 489 Series Power Take-Off Assembly, part number 489XHAHX-W3XD or 489XHAHXW3XD, is a wire/cable mechanical-shift PTO built for manual transmissions with an 8-bolt mounting aperture, including Eaton/Fuller, Volvo/Mack, and Tremec applications. The one-piece cast iron housing bolts directly to the 8-bolt transmission opening, eliminating the need for an adapter plate and reducing potential leak paths. Output shaft is a 1-1/4" round with key. The 489 Series shares its 250 lb-ft intermittent torque capacity with the 442 Series and uses tapered bearings instead of needle bearings for greater load-bearing capability. Shaft power rates at 24 HP at 500 RPM and 48 HP at 1,000 RPM. Call us to confirm proper fit for your transmission and application.

The Chelsea 489 Series is suited for aerial, vocational, and municipal equipment applications including utility trucks, snow and ice removal, fire and rescue, and dump truck and trailer use. Twenty-seven output options are available across the series, including Chelsea's 360-degree rotatable flange with greaseable shaft to reduce pump shaft spline fretting and corrosion. Eleven internal speed ratios and shift configurations are offered within the 489 Series lineup. Internal components are shared with the Chelsea 442 Series, making parts sourcing straightforward for fleets already running 442 units.
