helping a neighbor resurect his dads 400 case gasser. sat in the barn for 20 some years. changed all the fluids, a little work here and there, and finally got it running. i believe it is a 410 model as it is a narrow front gas tractor has an eagle hitch and one set of rear remotes. the hydraulic control levers are stuck in the neutral center position. dropped the linkages off and the levers move freely. removed the inspection cover on the rear end above the pto, and the linkage has about 1/4 inch movement either way. no rust in there, pretty clean considering. feels almost like there is some type of stop bolt or safety stop blocking movement. neither hitch control or remove lever will operate. any ideas?? he does have a 2nd 400, identical to this tractor, not running either, and those controls are stuck too.
