424 lift is inoperable

I have a 424 gas 1965 basket case that I have been working on. It is now running good but the hydraulic lift does not work at all. I can manually pick up the lift arms with no resistance whatsoever. The power steering and front end loader work so I know the pump is okay. Unfortunately I don"t know beans about hydraulics. Has anyone had experience with this problem or can someone suggest how I can troubleshoot it?
 
There is a "lock valve" below the front of the seat to lock the lift. If it is in that position, it will not work.

Do you have an operator's manual, and understand that valve, and the other lift controls?

If OK in that respect, it is a COMPLICATED mechanism, and you'll need a factory service manual to troubleshoot it.

Try Binderbooks, or watch ebay.
