Dose anyone know what this plug is for on the rear right side on the tractor?
It has 4 round looking terminals and a round style plug

Or a solution to this oil leak in the front drive axle. I have replaced the oil seal and dust ring and it seems to be still leaking?

Last but not least can anyone explain how this switch thingy works and what’s the purpose other then to raise and loser one side of the lift arms so the tiller tills on a angle ?
There’s a few other things I have questions about but can’t think of them right now

Thanks again

These are just guesses as no I haven't seen any of what your pointing out.

The round plug is most likely for the monromatic system, either a part is missing or it was for an option.
Another possibility is that it's for lighting of a trailer.

If you don't have a star shaped handle under the seat that controls the drop speed of the three point, that might be what it's for.

You'll have to be more specific as to where it's leaking.
One issue on some of these older models is that pressure in the front axle can cause them to leak, and installing a vented cap stops it.
Was there wear on the bearings causing it to have slop in the assembly?

The control is for the monromatic system, and sadly 99% of that system is undocumented, so answers are hard to come by.
