You don't find this part N.O.S. too often ......... it's an ignition switch and starter button relocation box. When installing the  HY-2 kit on an early '60's round hood Wheel Horse models the Hein Warner pump had to be mounted on the hood stand right wear the ignition switch and starter button originally located.

Looks familiar - traded and installed a 702 manual lift assembly for a complete HY-2 setup....

It'd fit perfectly on my 854...just sayin’ 

I know it had one on it before it came to me since it already has the extra pulley sheave on the engine, the extra holes on the hoodstand where the switch box mounted, and un-aged paint where the unit itself was mounted. And, it came to me without a starter switch so that went with the box!

I’ll be happy to trim he hi/low shifter to fit under there!

I’ve got that very similar setup on Putt Putt, seemingly the right choice for the kit!
