Wild thinking on my part. I have not been around a 560 so if it has a hydraulic actuated TA this answer is void.

Put the unit in 4th gear clutch not pushed in. Use a Pickup truck with an automatic trans. Use a tow strap (and two people who know each other and can be safe pulling on vehicles) to pull strongly on the tractor backwards. This tension (you won't be able to pull the tractor unless it is a mighty tough truck) will put forward (normal) direction torque on the system, but no more than would be applied by a running tractor engine. Pulling back the TA, and putting it forward should allow either no, or just slight rearward movement, but no slippage. Be careful this should be safe and result in no more than a foot of movement. You are not trying to free the engine. Good luck, JimN
