Transmission oil tank petcock valve

Jents,

I'm new to the Clark C500 world and I have a completely functioning C500-55 propane lift, except that it leaks transmission oil right underneath the tank.

On top of the transmission oil tank there is a petcock valve that has two labeled positions run and off. I can find nowhere in any documentation what this petcock valve does. Anyone have any experience or knowledge of this valve and it's operational and/or use?

Thanks in advance.

At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
