I will try to answer your question. The lever you are talking about puts the three point hitch into either draft of position control. Up for Draft control Down for position control. For bush hogging it needs to be in position control. This allows you to adjust the height of the cutter then set the wing nut on the control lever to that position. This way you can always return to your preset height. Position control is used for implements that are used above the groung. Draft control is used for plows, this allows the hydrolics an obstruction in the ground such as a stump or root and allow the plow to drift up thus overriding the obstruction.

There is no override kit that will make your PTO a live PTO. (Unless Zane Sherman' live thing will) You can find him on the N-Board at this site. But may I strongly suggest you look into getting a Override Clutch commonly calles a OCR. This slips over your current PTO shaft and is pinned into pisition and allows the inertia of you spinning blades on your bush hog to be disapiated to prevent you from going into a pond, hitting a fence, car or side of the barn etc. A well spent 69 bucks.
If you need moreinformation you might want to post on the N-Board. Don
