I'm looking at getting another 190XT to run a NH bale wagon. I'm noticing the Series lll models have a small, paddle-like lever on the right side of the front console, under the grab handle and above the brakes.

I used to have an older (1965?) model and it didn't have that paddle lever.

What's that lever do?

Thanks, and I hope everyone is having a productive summer.

Brake lock I think is what your talking about

Parking brake lever. All 190s have them, regardless of series.

It's the lever to set/release park brake.

The pin that holds the handle on the shaft tends to break. Then the handle could fall off and be lost on some you are seeing?

Seen many with vise grips. Seen many more that the handle was welded to the shaft on the end. Don't know how anyone could get along without the brake pedal latch not working.
