Like TXjim stated if you pull try to pull start it and you have the Hi/LO or hydraulic reverser YOU will damage the the tractor. You do not have to pull them very far while trying to turn the engine for it to do major damage. This can include ruining the hydraulic clutch pack housing. Fifteen years ago this was a $2500 screw up. The parts would be much higher today.
Had a customer pull his JD 2640 over to me because the fuel system was frozen up. His wife drove his pickup and he drove the tractor. He wanted the engine to be wind milling over so the steering would work. The wife must have been driving faster than the tractor would normally would run in road gear. HE exploded the Hi/Lo clutch pack and it locked up. So he had the transmission back driving the engine. He ruined several connection rods as they bent from being over sped. Total repair bill was over $7500 years ago.
So long story short just bleed the fuel system. It is much safer money wise.
