Abstract

A method is provided for controlling a PTO clutch of a transmission subject to a varying inertial load. The method includes providing a signal to a pressure control valve selectively engaged with the PTO clutch configured to engage a drive source of the transmission with an implement. The signal to the pressure control valve is modulated based on a single predetermined profile.
