2 things come to mind for this, first check the free play on the clutch pedal,to make sure it is giving the clutch a full stroke,free play[ the amount the pedal travels before encountering resistance] should be 3/4 inch as measured by standing a ruler on the running board behind the pedal, if this is correct, [if not let me know and ill tell you how to set it] you may have oil or grease gumming up the clutch disc,there should be a weep hole in the bottom of the bellhousing and a cotter pin may or may not be present, if it is pluged clear it out, if you have transmission lube running out, the front seal on the transmission is out and the tractor must be split to replace it, you might try the other posters idea and spray brake cleaner in there and see if you can free it up that may work for awhile but the fix is to split the tractor and replace the clutch , just a thought but you arnt hearing any unusual noises when you depress the pedal are you, the clutch may simply be worn beyond limits too, if you need to split the tractor, givin your situation, and the fact that this tractor has a loader on it, it would be better to let a shop do the work, it can be done at home, but you need a service manuel, a good set of basic tools, several floor jacks,and a smooth cement floor to work on , since your tractor has a loader another tractor with a loader would also be helpfull in removing the loader, and you also need to be fairly mechanicly inclined, post back with what you find and well go from there

To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books).
