These pumps, since they use the power of the truck engine to drive them—are practically maintenance-free. Water trucks use a special type of pump that runs off the powerful engine these trucks have. A power take-off (PTO) pump is used to convert the rotary power from the engine to hydraulic power to run the water pump. A PTO doesn’t just run pumps, on tractors they can also run cotton balers, power mowers, and more. In the city, you see PTO’s in use on street sweepers and fire truck pumps. PTO water trucks are used both in a precautionary role and a reactive role in firefighting applications.
