Thanks. No 3-point on this one, yet! No creeper either. Not sure what spring assist is.

The brake and clutch linkage seem to be sitting free. The one bit of linkage I don't understand is the interface between the tow lever and the valves on top of the hydro. The manual says to lock the tow lever in the down position, which I did. When that didn't work, I tried with the tow lever in the up position, figuring maybe the valves were hanging up on the lever cam. I can lift the rear wheels off the ground, so it makes no difference if the tow lever is engaged or not, in terms of being able to move the rear.

I can get some pictures tonight. She's all original, and always stored indoors, but she's done some hard work in her day. Good news is the original owner kept her well lubed and in good repair. I'd like to do a full restoration at some point, but first she has some snow plowing to do!
