Can somebody tell me what this port is for? I think it's for a having operation or something, I have no plan to use this port but wondering if this can be changed out for 12v power supply or something that would be more useful for me.

This is Kubotas 12 volt power plug port..If I recall one leg is switched off the key,one is 30 amp fused from the battery and one is the ground..Have never seen the plug that fits it. Seem's to me they should include the plug that fit's it if they are going to do it this way,but I'm sure it's available from your dealer for a "nominal fee" lol

Regard's

My iPad doesn't show your equipment - what model is this? My 66 ft 3 point sprayer uses this plug for power to the solenoid valves on the sprayer. I also have a quad std 12 volt power port that I plug into this port when not using the sprayer. There are a lot of ag products that use this 30 amp connector. My quad power port is nice but unusable when using the sprayer, the time when I most need extra ports as the standard 12 volt power point is used by my GPS. My dealer made up the power strip for me - I had a hard time finding the plug on Amazon or other places I searched, emailed my dealer and the power strip showed up next day no charge.

I have a 7060. Can you post so pictures of what you have, so maybe I can duplicate it?

Hopefully these pics show. First is the power strip. Trade name on it is Bell. I can find this on Amazon. Dealer cut off the regular end and put the 30 amp 3 prong ag attachment end. case IH, New Holland, and Kubota use them. Raven sprayer controllers use this waterproof connector from the attachment end. Case IH or New Holland dealers should have the connector. I did find a supplier catalog but no dealer. Aplogize for the pics - it was 10 below with a 30 mph wind blowing.

This is a 12 volt male plug easily available at hardware stores. Might be able to replace present plug with one that fits readily available plugs.

By the way the standard agricultural equipment plug that your 7060 and most ag tractors have is for today's precision ag equipment so much of which is electronically controlled. The 3 prong connector - one prong is ground, one is switched, and one is direct to battery. Direct to battery is because much of the precision equipment stores things like mapping in its memory and needs to be powered. My Raven control, for example, CUTs off sections of the spray bar automatically when its GPS shows that section has been sprayed. Turn the tractor off while filling and chance deleting its field map in memory. So If you decide to cut out your existing socket and replace it with something else, remember one of the hot wires is hot all the time and the other is switched through the key switch like the radio and the standard 12 volt power point.
