Farmall 706 Dash Console photos

[FinallyFarming]

Hello,
Now that my 706 is working, I'd like to complete the dash console.
What I mean is, nearly all the buttons and switches were gone when I got it. All that's left is the ignition switch and starter button plus the PTO dial guage on the Left and the Temp / Fuel gauge on the right. The temp / fuel gauge does not work and will need repair but it's there at least.

If I could find good photos of the original configuration (placement and device) for all the holes in the dash console I could start putting it all back together.

Here are photos of what I have now. Seems a good bit is missing. The FSM doesn't seem to show the dash that I could find.
If you have photos of your complete 706 dash that would be great. If not, could you tell me what goes in the respective numbered places?

I intend to get everything repaired and working again back to as factory original as possible.

Thanks again!

I don't think that starter button is in the right place. I think thats where the light switch is suppose to be. I think the starter button goes in hole 2

Try this drawing from Messicks with the engine controls. All 706 parts are listed if you go through the diagrams. Flying is correct.

2: is push button for starter on diesels right under that is the light switch where the curved decal is. Since there are 2 number 4s the on under the tach is probably the cigar lighter. The one under the fuel gage is the fuse holder if you put one there. 5: and 6: one would probably be the choke for a gas model and the last one would be your choice not all would necessarily be used and blanked out with a push in plug. Though one could have been the ether button for a cold weather starting aid. Then there is a plate that bolts over the hole on the steering in the middle, and might have been where the ether button was. Mostly an access panel for the steering lines to get to them. And those hydraulic couplers out the sides lower down were for the front mount cultivator lift. They will work with each remote lever so you could use them for a snow plow while having a power beyond for a loader if you wanted or other front mounted equipment of your choice. The 806 was the same set up there as the 706. I don't know that they had a horn on them unless it was an option on them. The same button that is used for the ether button was used for the starter or that is what my 806 was wired with since I've had it in 1978 with no problems and I used it for the push button on our 574 when I rewired it when the key switches kept burning the start position out of them.

Oh and the bottom panel with just 2 bolts at the top and tucked in behind the platform was where the regulator for your generator or old square regulator went for the older alternator or at least that is where it was on mine. bolted to a couple ears there.
