Answer 2

Gordon has it right.

A 2-speed PTO can either be electric (2-speed motor), mechanical (geared to the PTO) or hydraulic (powered by a hydraulic pump).

Electric PTOs are generally used for low powered winches like on the front of a Jeep.

Mechanical PTOs are generally used to drive a variety of pumps or heavier winches.

Hydraulic PTOs are typically used remotely. Oil pumped to the PTO can be used in a semi trailer's dump hoist.
