3.5.6.1 Hydraulic pump. A hydraulic pump with compatible pressure and flow capacities to
operate all hydraulic components and accessories shall be furnished. The hydraulic pump shall
be driven by a heavy duty power takeoff unit attached to the truck-chassis transmission. A
split-shaft power takeoff is not acceptable. Chain drives are not acceptable. The hoist pump
shall be of the gear type. The pump continuous pressure rating shall be not less than that
recommended by the hoist and cylinder manufacturer(s), with an intermittent rating not less than
500 pounds per square inch (psi) over the continuous rating. The system hydraulic pressure shall
be limited to not more than 2500 psi under any operating condition. The pump system shall
include a built-in adjustable pressure relief valve(s) or unloading valve(s), with a range of
adjustment which allow the operating and the test loads specified herein. The hydraulic pump
shall be capable of operating in ambient temperatures from minus 40F to plus 125F.
3.5.6.2 Neutral switch. A neutral switch shall be furnished. The neutral switch shall be
