That could be a differential lock. If nobody knows for sure (I'm not familiar with the tractor), to test, raise both wheels off the ground and engage that lever. If you can turn one wheel and the other doesn't go opposite direction, then you likely have a diff lock there.

Nope, it's not a diff lock, it IS the brake system. HERE is a manual that covers yours and many models.
