The term live power, or live power take-off, or just power take-off or PTO, is used to specify a feature of a piece of equipment like a tractor that has the ability to push or pull an aparatus, and also to separately drive the mechanical parts of the apparatus. In something like a brush cutter, the tractor pulls the cutting unit, and a separate drive shaft takes power from the tractor and transfers it to the cutter section to drive the cutter blades.

Did 185 Allis-Chalmers have live PTO?
The 185 had a live PTO in that the tractor's movement could be stopped with the PTO remaining engaged through the powerdirector clutch (this was the tractor's 2 speed, shift on the go, set up). However, if you pushed the foot clutch in, the PTO would lose power along with the forward motion of the tractor stopping. Also, the 185 was available with a hydraulically engaged PTO clutch, which would allow the PTO to be engaged while the tractor is moving, where the mechanically engaged PTO required the foot clutch be depressed, the tractor be brought to a stop, then the PTO engaged and the foot clutch reengaged. It was "live" per definition, but not "independent."
