The hand clutch was used because the clutch it operated was a more heavy duty "Over-Center" type clutch.
The hand lever allowed it to be in the "Engaged or Disengaged" position.The over center types are a 2 plate style.
The foot pedal operated "automotive style", single plate clutch uses a foot pedal to disengage ONLY-as all other times the spring loaded pedal is in the Engaged position.
Some companys believed in the Over-Center type(JD,MM,Case),some belived in the foot operated single plate type(IH,Massey Ford).
