Hi, 
It is a battery hold down according to the AP 60 literature. (Thanks to George’s amazing site https://www.myelec-traks.com/)  The battery hold down is used as the amount point for the inverter. . 

"The inverter can be permanently mounted in the area under the tractor hood by replacing the thumb screw securing the front battery hold-down clamp with the threaded stud provided with the inverter. Thread this rod into the clamp approximately 3/8-inch and place the inverter over the stud so its output receptacle faces forward and is at the top of the inverter. Secure the inverter with the nut and lockwasher supplied.


Here is a pic of the hold-down installed.

  Mike that sounds like the mounting bracket for the Elec-Trak inverter, AP60.   .

I am at a loss trying to figure out something very basic!I have the holdown that I have never used. It is two pieces; one flat bar with a small hole in the middle and another flat bar with the ends bent to 90 degrees and a threaded receptor in its middle and there is a thumb screw. There are two slots in the body of the tractor where the two batteries adjoin but the slots are a couple inches above the top of the batteries. Hopefully you know what I am describing. Not too complicated. 3 pieces! I can't put the puzzle together . Am I missing an important 4th piece?
Mike
