The draft levers are your 3 point lift control. the other broken lever is called a remote or an auxiliary control valve (and a few other names from other manufacturers/people).

of the draft levers, you're missing the quadrant which will identify and keep the levers from over-traveling. the inner most lever is called your position control. It is used to raise and lower your 3 point. the forward most couple inches of travel will affect your draft control response speed. The outer lever is your draft control lever--you may never use it, especially if you don't use a plow or tillage implement. for non tillage work, you want it all the way forward so the hitch behaves predictably when lowering and raising. It's best to get a manual--there may be excerpts from an IH tractor or plow manual on archive.org. If you can get a glimpse of the hitch pages from any IH tractor x06/56/66 the use of the levers is the same.

The remote control lever is for lifting a towed implement (i'm over simplifying) or running a hydraulic motor. examples on a farm would be lifting a pulled disk harrow, a dump trailer, and an end gate on a manure spreader. Some people controlled their loaders with that lever--they relied on gravity and a latch mechanism for the bucket control. The hydraulic motor usage with that particular tractor would be very limited, but it could be used intermittently for tasks such as rotating a snowblower spout.

hope this helps

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
