SadFarmall I used a early tractor with that pin as a kid and older. Didn't seem real hard to operate as a kid but after the foot and rest increased in size it wasn't to handy to operate.
Think it was a plain 3/8 rod with a cotter pin hole at front of the steering post to keep pin from falling out to rear. Don't think the pin ever had a head but was worn from use. Part # of pin Q1249.
After hydraulic seats were offered in the US a clamp was used on the steering post with a lever pushed by foot to operate the switch. Early hydraulic seat attachments came with the starter lever. Most pins are long gone in the US. Could probably count on one hand tractors I noticed with a pin in the last 15 years.
Correction, checked my memory and looks like I was mistaken on the plain rod diameter. 5/16 not 3/8.
