I dont understand what the draft control lever is for on my tractor can you help

Draft control lever tells the hydraulic system whether you're using a ground breaking implement such as a plow where the hydraulics move the implement up or down depending on how much pressure(resistance) the implement exerts going through the soil. This is when the draft conrol is in draft mode or horizontal position. When you have it in position control mode(vertical) the hydraulics maintain the position that you select with the quadrant lever, large lever on your right. Basically unless you're plowing you'll want the lever in the vertical position so you select the height of the implement.
I hope that helps, Lee
