If you have a cutout switch instead of a voltage regulator that resistor does more than dim the lights. If you look at your amp meter while the tractor is running you will see that the tractor is charging at a high rate. If you plow all day like this, you will over charge the battery. To cure this, you use the light switch to regulate the current going to the battery. On my cub, the amp meter is at zero with the lights on bright. The dim setting allows some charging but will not over charge the battery. Now, since I do not have any experience with a cub with a voltage regulator, I do not know if this still holds true. See the attached link for a pretty good cub wiring diagram.
