Additional Information

The 871 Series is suited for demanding vocational applications including fire and rescue, truck cranes, pumper-cleaner trucks, and refuse vehicles. Its compact housing reduces clearance concerns during installation, and multiple assembly arrangements expand mounting flexibility. The SmartStart option reduces shock load at start-up for torque-sensitive driven equipment, while Electronic Overspeed Control (EOC) safeguards pumps and other driven components. The Wet Spline pump flange circulates lubricant across the spline interface to extend both PTO and pump shaft service life.
