Hi there, can anyone tell me what the icon on the bottom left is for on this loader? And when I should toggle it? I suspect it is diff or lockup related but sure seems like a odd spot sharing a toggle switch with a light.

    I would guess trans neutralizer-when pushing right brake pedal.

    Clutch disconnect, and it allows left brake pedal application to disconnect the transmission, allowing you to rev the engine up, raising the lift speed of the boom. I had 2 of them. Still have one.

    Oops I meant LEFT!
