Just saved this tractor from the scrap pile. Runs great! Using it around the farm. Has a weird lever under the seat that I need some help identifying? Thank you in advance!

Selects Position Control for equipment working above the ground, sprayers, slashers
etc. or Draft Control to control soil engaging equipment like ploughs and
cultivators.

Position control means if the control lever is halfway up the quadrant, the lift
arms will raise halfway up their travel.

In Draft control pressure on the top link controls the lift arm position depending
on where the lever is in the quadrant. At the top end of the quadrant a little
pressure on the top link will cause the lift arms to raise, lower down the quadrant
more pressure will be needed to do the same.

You can try this yourself by putting a lever on the top link and pushing it.

Your picture shows the lever in Position Control.

That is a diverter valve. It should only be pulled out if the pipe above and slightly toward the rear from the knob is not plugged like it is in your picture. It is used to divert the hydraulic flow that would normally go to the three point lift to an external implement if you have one hooked up to that pipe, which you don't at the moment. The sound you are hearing when you pull it out is either the pump being dead headed or the relief valve opening due to too much pressure.
