That pedal you are wondering about is a pedal linkage to the starter. That’s a blower too. These machines had a two stroke 2-71 Detroit in them.

Ah that makes sense! Thanks for the Intel!

These things struggled in virgin packed dirt. They were way better than a shovel. I ran one that had a 2-53. About the time you got the bucket nearly full it nosed over on power. 440 Deere was no different. Get on an 80 HP skid steer and do more in an hour than these things did in 4. We've come a long way but really, have we?
