From what I have gathered, and this is just second hand information (sorry, couldn't find a diagram for you) The switched negative from the key switch would go to the "X" terminal, The "L" terminal would go to the light and the "P" terminal will remain unused. The case of the flasher should be grounded (to the + terminal of the battery in your situation, or any good ground on the tractor) This set up would make the lights flash whenever the key switch was in the "on" position. Like I said, this is second hand information, so I would appreciate some backup on this LOL. It is also suggested that a 10 amp fuse be installed in-line. Hope this helps!

Nice job! And you did a very good job of explaining the installation on the video too.
