Leon: As Kirsch said, it' case of setting it for contitions, up on the lever supposedly gives you more weight transfer to tractor thus better traction when plowing with a fast hitch plow.
Having said this, these hitches on 350, 450, 460 and 560 were IH first attempt at automatic draft control. It was the beginning of the evolution and quite a poor start I might add. It has been said that IH might have gotton off to a poor start, but fast hitch automatic draft control was the fore runner of the lower link 3 point hitch sencing on 06 tractors.

In my opinion no one has built a better automatic draft control as of 2009.
