Vehicle power take-off works by connecting to the low-gear of the transmission or the output shaft of the auxiliary gearbox, effectively transmitting power to external operations. A vehicle power take-off is essentially a transmission gear, consisting of one or multiple sets of transmission gears, also known as a power output unit. The classifications of vehicle power take-offs include: 1. Based on different control methods, power take-offs can be categorized into mechanical control, hydraulic control, pneumatic control, vacuum source control, and electronic control, with pneumatic control being the most common; 2. According to different power output forms, they can generally be divided into side-mounted power output form, front-mounted power output form, rear-mounted power output form, and engine front-mounted power output form.
