First, if it's a no start check and make sure you have spark. Needs to be bright blue and jump 1/8-1/4 inch. The further the better. If no spark trouble shoot the ignition system. First is to make sure the switch is good. Turn it on and check voltage to the coil. Turn off and on and repeat test each time 4-5 times. Next check to see if you have pulsing voltage to the distributer side of the coil while it's being cranked. If not you may have a wire that is sometimes grounding going into the dizzy or there is a problem with the IE.
If you do have spark check for fuel to the carb. Don't know on the 560 but a lot of old good carbs have a drian plug in the bottom od the bowl. Pull the plug with a clean coffee can under it. Should have a steady stream of gas running out, keep it running like that for a minute or 2. That allows the what gas is in the bowl to drain. If it turns into a dribble then you have a blockage to the carb. If it flows good then the problem is in the carb.

I got the tractor so stuck that the underside of the tractor was resting on the ground. My uncle wanted
