Power takeoff
Tomada de potencia creio que e incorrecto, mas posso estar errada:
It is not a plug, it's a shaft that turns when engaged in the rear of most tractors. Used to connect implements to the tractor such as a swather or a baler or a brush-hog, for example.
Try going along the lines of this definition I found in the dictionary:
mech. a rotating, cylindrical bar used to transmit motive power
