The auxiliary power system pumps a fluid material housed by a truck hydraulic tank and bypasses the truck engine to affect a pump that offload the fluid material. The auxiliary power system includes a housing, an auxiliary engine, a pump, a suction line, a pressure line, and an offload control module. A method for configuring an auxiliary power system to bypass a truck engine is also described. The method includes controlling a pump that is operatively coupled to an auxiliary engine with an offload control module, in which the pump is powered by the auxiliary engine.
