i had a 96 jcb and in conjunction with a dash mounted switch , these buttons operated jcb,s own quickhitch called a hitchmaster
others have had them too, one not used and the other a horn , never seen or had the extender or hammer on buttons with a stick machine

my present one a 2011 has the horn on the left hand control
