TO 35 lift arms wont lower

I was out bushhogging today and hit a stump. I grabbed the hydralever to raise the hog. It lifted but then I couldn't get the arms to lower with the tractor running. Once shut off, the arms lowered. Had oil coming out from under the selector valve (remotes/arms).On starting the tractor the arms lifted to maximum height. Where do I start?
 
Sounds like something is jammed or stuck in the
controls under the seat.

First, remove the round inspection cover on the
right side. There will be 2 levers from above that
are in contact with the front of a roller lever.
If the levers are not in contact with the roller,
the valve is stuck. Move the roller back and forth
and see if it will free up. It should be spring
loaded forward against the levers.

You can push the roller to the side and move it in
front of the levers. Start the engine and see if
the arms stay down.

!!Be careful reaching in there! Moving parts
inside!!

Then carefully push back on the roller, the arms
should go up. If they do, the problem is above in
the position control assembly.

The most common problem with the position control
lever is rust. Check the rubber boot around the
upper link, if it's rotted away there will be
rusty scale on everything and water entering the
transmission. Typically the upper cover can be
removed, the linkage cleaned and lubed and
adjusted. You will need a service manual though.
 
The Control Valve will be stuck. Remove the Right side round plate below the seat. Inside there are two rods hanging Down and One coming up out of the Oil. Move the one out of the oil, back and forth a few times with the engine running and the Position Lever on the fast mark...be careful as the implement may crash down, so keep everyone away while you do it.
