ABSTRACT:
A face plate to be affixed to the interior of the operator's cab of an agricultural tractor around the electronic control devices within the reach of the operator is disclosed wherein the face plate is provided with an outwardly projecting hand brace affixed to the face plate. The face plate is mounted around the electronic device such that the hand brace is positioned below the electronically controlled device to provide a brace against which the operator's hand can be steadied to permit the manipulation of the control device while the tractor is operating through uneven terrain. By resting the hand against the hand brace the fingers can be steadied sufficiently to allow the electronic controls to be properly manipulated, irrespective of the unevenness of the terrain over which the tractor is traversing.
